Empowerment and Luxury: Mina's Solo in '7 rings'
Mina from TWICE delivers a powerful rendition of '7 rings,' a song originally by Ariana Grande, that celebrates self-empowerment, independence, and the joy of indulging in luxury. The lyrics open with iconic imagery of 'breakfast at Tiffany's and bottles of bubbles,' setting a scene of opulence and carefree living. This is a nod to the classic film 'Breakfast at Tiffany's,' symbolizing a life of glamour and sophistication. The mention of 'girls with tattoos who like getting in trouble' adds a rebellious edge, suggesting that Mina embraces a bold and unapologetic lifestyle.
The song's chorus, 'I see it, I like it, I want it, I got it,' encapsulates a mantra of self-sufficiency and determination. Mina sings about overcoming hardships and transforming into a 'savage,' a term that here signifies strength and resilience rather than its negative connotations. The lyrics 'write my own checks like I write what I sing' emphasize her autonomy and control over her life and career, rejecting traditional constraints and expectations.
Throughout the song, Mina flaunts her success and wealth, with lines like 'my wrist, stop watchin', my neck is flossy' and 'my receipts be lookin’ like phone numbers.' These lyrics highlight her financial independence and the freedom it brings. The repeated phrase 'I want it, I got it' reinforces the theme of self-empowerment, showing that she has the means and the will to obtain whatever she desires. This song is a celebration of personal achievement, confidence, and the joy of living life on one's own terms.
