Justin Bieber might be "officially retiring," but you better believe he's still singing!

The 19-year-old pop star Instagrammed five acoustic audio clips Dec. 25, calling them a "Christmas present for #beliebers." 

While the visuals weren't much (the camera stays focused on the blinds!), the Biebs sounded great in the clips, including snippets of "U Smile," "Confident" and "Swap It Out." 

And when he wasn't giving Beliebers the gift of his voice, he was celebrating the holiday with his family! He Instagrammed a cute "Snowy Christmas" photo of himself with little brother Jaxon, dad Jeremy Bieber and friends posing alongside a snowman. 

Justin looked like he enjoyed his first holiday off since announcing he was "officially retiring," but is he really hanging up the mic? He tweeted that, yes, but also promised to "never leave" his fans. 

"The media talks a lot about me," he wrote. "They make a up a lot of lies and want me to fail but I'm never leaving you, being a belieber is a lifestyle…Be kind loving to each other, forgive each other as god forgave us through Christ Merry Christmas IM HERE FOREVER."

But, really, is the Biebs just punking us all? His rep had no comment on whether this retirement announcement was for real, but a source told E! News "of course it's not true." 

Let's hope he's making music for a long time to come!
