The Meaning Behind Justin's "Hold On" Lyrics Is A Message About Hope
Justin Bieber is notoriously cryptic with his lyrics, opting for metaphors and beat drops usually instead of saying exactly what he means. But on his new track "Hold On," which dropped March 5, he says exactly what he means. Justin Bieber's "Hold On" lyrics are so meaningful and fans are in their feels about them.
The consensus seems to be clear on "Hold On," with Beliebers everywhere agreeing the song packs an emotional punch.
"Watching the hold on music video, listening to the song and taking in the lyrics felt like going on a rollercoaster of emotions," one person tweeted after the release.
The Biebs dropped a music video to coincide with the song, and it kicks off with a high-intensity police chase. The visual only gets more intense from there, with JB robbing a bank to help pay for his girlfriend's medical bills (she appears to have cancer). Between the lyrics, and the tearjerker of a music video, Bieber has fans in literal tears.
"I'm literally crying. Hold on mv touched my heart, so do his amazing vocals and lyrics. So so so proud," one person tweeted.

VERSE 1
You know you can call me if you need someone
I'll pick up the pieces if you come undone
PRE-CHORUS
Painting stars up on your ceiling 'cause you
Wish that you could find some feeling, yeah, you
You know you can call me if you need someone
CHORUS
I need you to hold on
Heaven is a place not too far away
We all know I should be the one to say we all make mistakes (We all make mistakes)
Take my hand and hold on
Tell me everything that you need to say
'Cause I know how it feels to be someone
Feels to be someone who loses their way
