Best New songJamila Woods — Holy
Posted by LetsLoop on May 3, 2017, 4:49 pm By all accounts @Jamila Woods's 2016 debut album, HEAVN, was one of the best of the year. So why haven't you heard of it? Well, sadly it never received a co-ordinated physical and digital release. In fact, the only song you could find on (some) streaming services was the stunning Blk Girl Soldier.That's all changing now that Jamila has signed with indie label Jagjaguwar. Not only is HEAVN getting an official release later this year, but they've also shared the video for one of its standout tracks, Holy.
Here's what Jamila had to say about Holy and its new video:
"I wrote Holy to remind myself that my worth is not dependent on anyone or anything outside of me. For the video I wanted to represent self-care as a sacred act, to make ordinary daily rituals in bedrooms and bathtubs feel magical."
If you like the sound of this, be sure to check out Holy (Reprise) and her guest appearance on Blessings (from @Chance The Rapper's breathtaking Coloring Book mixtape) too.

Holy lyrics:
Give me today my daily bread
Help me to walk alone ahead
Though I walk through the darkest valley I will fear no love
Oh my smile my mind reassure me I don't need no one
[Chorus]
Woke up this morning with my mind set on loving me
With my mind set on loving me
Woke up this morning with my mind set on loving me
With my mind set on loving me
I'm not lonely, I'm alone
And I'm holy by my own
I'm not lonely, I'm alone
And I'm holy by my own
[Bridge 2x]
Ye, the bad days may come
The lover may leave
The winter may not
Hey, the map of your palms
The temple you be
You're all that you got
Though I walk through the darkest valley I will fear no love
Oh my smile my mind reassure me I don't need no one
[Chorus]
My cup is full up, what I got is enough
Nobody completes me, don't mess with my stuff
My cup is full up, what I got is enough
Nobody completes me, don't mess with my love
Surely, surely, surely, surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow me
Shall follow me
Shall follow me
