Adele Hold On
In Adele’s cover story interview for the November 2021 issue of Vogue (US), interviewer Abby Aguirre previewed “Hold On” from Adele’s upcoming 30 album. The track is described by Aquirre as “a joyous anthem” with “gospelly” organ. The track ends with an amateur choir consisting of Adele’s friends singing “Just hold on”.
“The thing that they’re all singing is what my friends used to say to me,” Adele explains. “That’s why I wanted them to sing it, rather than an actual choir.”
On November 7, 2021, a snippet of the song debuted in a video advertisement for Amazon.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Love will soon come
Just hold, hold on
[Verse 1]
Oh, what have I done yet again?
Have I not learned anything?
I don’t want to live in chaos
It’s like a ride that I want to get off
It’s hard to hold onto who I am
When I’m stumbling in the dark for a hand
I am so tired of battling with myself, with no chance to win
[Chorus]
Hold on
Let time be patient
You are still strong
Let pain be gracious
Love will soon come
Just hold, hold on
[Verse 2]
I swear to God, I am such a mess
The harder that I try, I regress
I’m my own worst enemy
Right now I truly hate being me
Every day feels like the road I’m on
Might just open up and swallow me whole
How do I feel so mighty small
When I’m struggling to feel at all?
[Chorus]
Just hold on (Just hold on)
Let time be patient (You)
You are still strong
Let pain be gracious (Love will soon come)
Just hold on (You, just hold on, you, just just hold on), hold on (You, just hold on, just hold on)
[Bridge]
Sometimes loneliness is the only rest we get (Just hold on, just hold on)
And the emptiness actually let’s us forget (Just hold on, just hold on)
Sometimes forgiveness is easiest in secret (Just hold on, just hold on, just hold on, just hold on)
[Chorus]
So just hold on (Just hold on)
Let time be patient (You are still strong)
Let pain be gracious
Love will soon come, baby
If you just hold on
[Outro]
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Just let time be patient
‘Cause you’re still strong, I’m still strong (You are still strong)
Just be gracious
‘Cause love will soon come
If you just hold on (You, just hold on, you, just just hold on, you, just hold on)
Just be patient, just be patient
(You, just hold on, you, just just hold on, you, just hold on, you, just hold on, just hold on, just hold on)
