On March 19, 2021, the same day Justin released the standard version of Justice, the singer was interviewed by Official Charts, in which he told them that the deluxe edition would contain three new tracks and would be released three days later, and also confirmed in an interviewe with Vogue the same day that Lil Uzi Vert will be featured on “There She Go” from the deluxe version. However, it was instead released exactly one week later and had six total new tracks.
2 Much
Justin Bieber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe I stare too much
Maybe not long enough
Funny how I forget to blink
But when you let down your hair
Dancin' like no one's there
I know I'm where I'm supposed to be
Say I love you under my breath
More times than you can digest
Music every time I hear your name (oh)
Your head's layin' right on my chest
Sun's up and I still ain't got no rest
Don't wanna close my eyes
I'm scared I'll miss too much
Don't wanna fall asleep
I'd rather fall in love
When I can't feel you, I feel out of touch
Two seconds without you's like two months
Don't wanna close my eyes
I'm scared I'll miss too much
Don't wanna fall asleep
I'd rather fall in love
'Cause eternity with you ain't long enough
Two seconds without you's like two months
And that's too much
Love the way you love your mom
Take on all your friends problems
Still somehow stop the world for us (oh)
I still relive that second
I met my biggest blessing
Prayed for you, look what God has done
I say I love you under my breath
More times than you can digest
Music every time I hear your name (oh)
Your head's laying right on my chest
Sun's up and I still ain't got no rest
Don't wanna close my eyes
I'm scared I'll miss too much
Don't wanna fall asleep
I'd rather fall in love
When I can't feel you, I feel out of touch
Two seconds without you's like two months
Don't wanna close my eyes
I'm scared I'll miss too much
Don't wanna fall asleep
I'd rather fall in love
'Cause eternity with you ain't long enough
Two seconds without you's like two months
And that's too much

Line by Line Meaning
Maybe I stare too much
I can't help but look at you all the time
Maybe not long enough
No amount of time spent looking at you is enough
Funny how I forget to blink
You captivate me so much that I forget to do basic things like closing my eyes for a moment
But when you let down your hair
When you relax and let your guard down
Dancin' like no one's there
You're free and uninhibited, expressing yourself without any self-consciousness
I know I'm where I'm supposed to be
Being with you is where I belong
Say I love you under my breath
I whisper it to myself when I'm with you, too nervous to say it out loud
More times than you can digest
I love you so much that I constantly say it, more than you could ever fully comprehend
Music every time I hear your name (oh)
Just the thought of you or hearing your name makes me feel like a love song is playing in my head
Your head's layin' right on my chest
We're close, our hearts beating in sync
Sun's up and I still ain't got no rest
I'm so consumed with thoughts of you that I can't sleep
Don't wanna close my eyes
I want to witness every moment spent with you
I'm scared I'll miss too much
If I close my eyes or look away, I'm afraid I'll miss out on a single second with you
Don't wanna fall asleep
I don't want to miss anything, not even a second, of our time together
I'd rather fall in love
Falling in love is a beautiful, exhilarating experience that I never want to miss out on
When I can't feel you, I feel out of touch
When we're apart, I feel disconnected from everything else in the world
Two seconds without you's like two months
Time without you feels like an eternity
'Cause eternity with you ain't long enough
I could spend forever with you and it still wouldn't feel like enough time
Love the way you love your mom
I admire and appreciate how much you care for your family
Take on all your friends problems
You're always supportive and willing to help when your friends need you
Still somehow stop the world for us (oh)
Even with everything else going on, you're able to make me feel like the only thing that matters
I still relive that second
I can't stop thinking about the moment we first met or any other special memories we've shared
I met my biggest blessing
Meeting you has been the best thing that's ever happened to me
Prayed for you, look what God has done
I feel grateful and blessed to have you in my life, like it was meant to be
And that's too much
The thought of being without you, even for a moment, is unbearable
