Justin Bieber está de regreso con un nuevo single que se edita solo unos meses después de su último álbum de estudio, ‘Changes‘. Además, desde el lanzamiento del disco el pasado 14 de febrero, el artista también ha publicado el single benéfico ‘Stuck with U’ junto a Ariana Grande y ha participado en el videoclip del nuevo single de DJ Khaled.
Lo nuevo del artista canadiense es ‘Holy‘, un tema editado a través del sello RBMG/Def Jam Recordings que cuenta con la colaboración de Chance The Rapper. No es la primera vez que ambos artistas trabajan juntos ya que editaron un tema en el álbum de Bieber de 2013, ‘Journals‘.
‘Holy‘ supone el regreso de Bieber al pop después de un álbum en el que exploraba un sonido más R&B y homogéneo en singles como ‘Yummy‘ o el éxito ‘Intentions‘ junto a Quavo.
El single viene acompañado de un cuidado videoclip dirigido por Colin Tilley en el que el artista refleja el mensaje de que, a pesar de las adversidades, siempre hay mantener la fe en que nos espera algo mucho mejor.
‘HOLY’ (Letra de la canción)
I hear a lot about sinners
Don’t think that I’ll be a saint
But I might go down to the river
‘Cause the way that the sky opens up when we touch
Yeah, it’s making me say
That the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so holy, holy, holy, holy, holy
On god
Runnin’ to the altar like a track star
Can’t wait another second
‘Cause the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so holy
I don’t do well with the drama
And, no, I can’t stand it being fake
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no)
I don’t believe in nirvana
But the way that we love in the night gave me life
Baby, I can’t explain
That the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so holy, holy, holy, holy, holy
On god
Runnin’ to the altar like a track star
Can’t wait another second
‘Cause the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so holy
They say we’re too young and
The pimps and the players say, «Don’t go crushin'»
Wise men say fools rush in
But I don’t know (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
They say we’re too young and
The pimps and the players say, «Don’t go crushin'»
Wise men say fools rush in
But I don’t know (Chance the Rapper)
The first step pleases the Father
Might be the hardest to take
But when you come out of the water
I’m a believer, my heart is fleshy
Life is short with a temper like Joe Pesci
They always come and sing your praises, your name is catchy
But they don’t see you how I see you, Parlay and Desi
Cross, Tween, Tween, hesi’ hit the jet speed
When they get messy, go lefty like Lionel Messi
Let’s take a trip and get the Vespas or rent a jetski
I know the spots that got the best weed, we goin’ next week
I wanna honor, wanna honor you
Bride’s groom, I’m my father’s child
I know when the son takes the first steps, the Father’s proud (Yes)
If you make it to the water, he’ll part the clouds (Uh)
I know he made you a snack like Oscar Proud (Mwah)
Suffer it to be so now gotta clean it up (Ooh)
Formalize the union in communion, he can trust (Woo)
I know I ain’t leavin’ you like I know he ain’t leavin’ us (Ah)
I know we believe in god, and I know god believes in us
‘Cause the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so holy, holy, holy, holy, holy
On god
Runnin’ to the altar like a track star
Can’t wait another second, on god
Runnin’ to the altar like a track star
Can’t wait another second, on god
Runnin’ to the altar like a track star
Can’t wait another second
‘Cause the way you hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Feels so ho-ho-ho-holy
