Let It

CL's song 'Let It' is a powerful anthem about self-acceptance, resilience, and the importance of staying true to oneself. The lyrics convey a message of perseverance despite feeling stuck or overwhelmed by life's challenges. The opening lines reflect a sense of stagnation and frustration, as the artist questions why she feels like she's not making progress. However, she quickly shifts to a more hopeful tone, expressing a desire to rise above these feelings and find herself again.

The chorus emphasizes the importance of letting go of worries and following one's instincts. CL encourages listeners to trust the natural flow of life and to live authentically without fear of regret. The repetition of the phrase '걱정하지마 흘러가면 돼' (Don't worry, just let it flow) serves as a mantra for embracing a carefree and confident attitude. This message is reinforced by the lines '난 나답게 항상 내가 느낀대로 해' (I always do as I feel, true to myself), highlighting the significance of self-expression and individuality.

Throughout the song, CL also addresses societal pressures and the tendency to conform. She rejects the idea of following others blindly and instead advocates for staying true to one's dreams and aspirations. The lyrics '나는 쉽게 안 변해 나 다운 내가 되려 해' (I don't change easily, I strive to be myself) and '중요한 건 꿈, 희망, plus 젊은 패기' (What's important are dreams, hope, and youthful spirit) underscore the importance of maintaining one's identity and pursuing personal goals. The song's uplifting and empowering message resonates with anyone who has ever felt the weight of expectations and the need to break free from them.
