Justin Bieber has been one of the biggest pop stars in the world for over a decade now. From his breakout hits like “Baby” to his recent chart-toppers, Bieber has consistently delivered catchy pop anthems that have resonated with fans worldwide. However, in recent years Bieber’s music seems to have taken on a new level of depth and maturity. Many believe this transformation can be directly linked to a major change in his personal life – his marriage to model Hailey Baldwin, now Hailey Bieber.

Since tying the knot with Hailey in 2018, Bieber has spoken openly about how she has inspired and influenced his songwriting. From tender ballads to playful odes, several of Bieber’s hits from the past few years are widely considered love songs for his wife. Let’s take a closer look at some of these standout tracks and how they capture Bieber’s feelings for Hailey.

“All Around Me” (2020)

Released as part of Bieber’s Changes album in 2020, “All Around Me” is a soulful and melodic love song. With its acoustic guitar-driven instrumentation and Bieber’s smooth vocals, the track has a relaxed yet intimate vibe. The lyrics paint a beautiful picture of finding unconditional love and support:

“You’re all around me, like the air I breathe
Like the sunshine, warming me from underneath
You’re underneath my skin, yeah, you’re in my bones
You’re everything I need, you’re everything I know”

These lyrics portray how Bieber sees Hailey as essential to his well-being, surrounding and sustaining him at his core. The references to being “underneath my skin” and in his “bones” suggest a deep, all-encompassing love that is fully integrated into who he is. Bieber has said the song is about “feeling whole with someone” – a sentiment that strongly aligns with his relationship with Hailey. Overall, “All Around Me” comes across as a heartfelt tribute to the completeness Bieber has found in his wife.

“Yummy” (2020)

In stark contrast to the emotional depth of “All Around Me,” Bieber’s first single from Changes, “Yummy,” takes a much lighter approach to love and attraction. Set to an upbeat, danceable production, the song finds Bieber playfully objectifying his love interest’s physical appeal:

“You got that yummy-yum, that yummy-yum, that yummy-yummy

While the lyrics may not be the most profound, Bieber has said the song is “obviously about sex” – a topic he had shied away from in his earlier music career. This newfound confidence and comfort with his sexuality seems directly linked to being in a stable, committed relationship with Hailey. And who better to inspire such lyrics than his gorgeous model wife? “Yummy” may not be high art, but it serves as an amusing and flirty ode to Bieber’s appreciation for Hailey’s deliciousness.

“Unstable” (2020)

In contrast to the lightheartedness of “Yummy,” “Unstable” takes a more raw and introspective look at Bieber’s relationship. Over a melancholy piano melody, he acknowledges the challenges and imperfections that come with loving another person:

“I know I’m not perfect, but you see the good in me
Even when I’m unstable, you see the good in me”

The lyrics touch on Bieber’s vulnerability, recognizing that maintaining a healthy relationship requires showing one’s true self, flaws and all. Hailey has said she sees the “real him” – giving Bieber the courage to be transparent about his struggles. Her acceptance and understanding seem to be what inspires the song’s message of finding stability within instability through unconditional love. While a somber track, “Unstable” provides an intimate glimpse into how Hailey’s support allows Bieber to embrace both light and dark aspects of himself.

“Holy” (feat. Chance the Rapper) (2021)

On his 2021 album Justice, Bieber teamed up with Chance the Rapper for the inspirational love song “Holy.” Opening with a soulful sample of Justin Timberlake, the track builds to an anthemic chorus proclaiming a commitment to faith, fidelity and growing together:

“I’m gonna love you till you overdose
I’ma love you till you call the cops on me”

The lyrics portray a fearless, ride-or-die love that will last through all challenges. Bieber has said the song captures the “beauty of stepping into new chapters” with someone – a clear reference to his journey with Hailey. Chance the Rapper also brings a thoughtful verse celebrating his own marriage. Together, their vocals create an uplifting tribute to the power of holy matrimony. With its gospel-influenced sound and message of devotion, “Holy” stands out as one of Bieber’s most overt homages to married life with Hailey.

“Lifetime” (2021)

Closing out the Justice album is the emotional ballad “Lifetime” – perhaps Bieber’s most explicit love letter to Hailey yet. Over a sparse, piano-led arrangement, he pours his heart out with raw vulnerability:

“I’ll spend my whole life trying to make you see
You’re the only everything I’ll ever need”

Bieber lays his feelings completely bare here, promising a lifetime of proving his love and commitment. The lyrics speak to the level of trust and intimacy he has found in his relationship. Hailey has said the song brought her to tears, understanding the deep emotions behind it. For Bieber, who experienced many ups and downs in past relationships, “Lifetime” stands as a powerful declaration of the stability and fulfillment he now feels. It’s a beautiful full-circle moment showing how far he’s come through his marriage.

Beyond just these highlighted tracks, Bieber’s entire Justice album seems infused with themes of love, growth and redemption – likely inspired by his journey with Hailey over the past few years. From the deeply personal “Peaches” to the hopeful “Somebody,” the album captures a newfound maturity and self-awareness in Bieber’s artistry. As he continues putting out music, it will be fascinating to see how his relationship continues impacting his songwriting process and sound in the future. But through songs like these, it’s clear Hailey Bieber has already left an indelible mark on revitalizing her husband’s creative spirit and passion for his craft.

In conclusion, Justin Bieber’s marriage to Hailey Baldwin has coincided with a notable evolution in both his personal life and musical style. Several of his recent hits directly address themes of commitment, vulnerability and unconditional love – all sentiments that strongly align with Bieber’s feelings for his wife. Whether through intimate ballads, playful odes or messages of devotion, these love songs provide a window into how profoundly Hailey has inspired and shaped Bieber as both an artist and a man. As their relationship continues to blossom, it will be interesting to see what new creative heights their enduring love lifts Bieber to in the years ahead.
