Background and composition

"Sveto Pismo" was written by Vjekoslava Huljić, arranged by Tonči Huljić and produced by Darko Dimitrov and Željko Joksimović. It was released almost a year after the singer's last single since she did not want to rush through the process. Lyrically, the song poses the question of whether "love is enough" for a relationship to survive the "problems and temptations or is something more necessary". Musically, "Sveto Pismo" is similar to songs from the beginning of the singer's career.

Music video and live performances

A music video for the song, directed by Dario Radusin was released on 27 January 2020 and was filmed in Dubrovnik. A writer of Dnevnik praised the singer for her successful portrayal of emotions. Dubrovnik was chosen as the location to film the video due to its "romantic" atmosphere and attraction. Rozga performed the song on 28 January at the 2020 Music Awards Ceremony show in Belgrade. The following month, Rozga appeared on the Macedonian Golden Ladybug of Popularity awards show, where she also performed "Sveto Pismo" along with a medley of "Cirkus", "Ne pijem, ne pušim" and "Dani su bez broja" during the show. On 19 April 2020, during a series of concerts held at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Rozga performed an acoustic rendition of "Sveto Pismo" on Instagram Live and later YouTube.
