SOLO (Live)

JENNIE's 'SOLO (Live)' is a powerful declaration of independence and self-empowerment. The song begins with the artist expressing her exhaustion with the superficial aspects of a relationship. Phrases like '천진난만 청순가련 새침한 척 이젠 지쳐 나 귀찮아' (Innocent, pure, pretending to be coy, I'm tired of it now, it's annoying) highlight her frustration with maintaining a facade. The repetitive nature of daily check-ins and endearing terms like 'Baby, 자기, 여보, 보고 싶어' (Baby, honey, darling, I miss you) are dismissed as meaningless, emphasizing her disillusionment with the relationship.

The chorus, '이건 아무 감동 없는 love story' (This is a love story with no emotion), underscores the lack of genuine connection and excitement. JENNIE unapologetically declares, '네겐 미안하지만 I'm not sorry' (I'm sorry to you, but I'm not sorry), marking a pivotal moment where she chooses herself over a hollow relationship. The phrase '빛이 나는 솔로' (Shining solo) becomes a mantra of self-liberation, celebrating her newfound freedom and self-worth.

In the second verse, JENNIE's transformation is evident. She shifts from being 'your girl' to 'being the GOAT' (Greatest of All Time), symbolizing her rise to self-sufficiency and confidence. Lines like 'I ain't got no time for the troubles in your eyes' and 'This time I'm only lookin' at me, myself and I' reinforce her commitment to self-care and personal growth. The song's empowering message is clear: JENNIE is destined for greatness, and she will achieve it on her own terms. The repeated refrain of 'I'm goin' solo-lo-lo-lo-lo' serves as a triumphant declaration of her independence and strength.
