Jennie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
새침한 척 이젠 지쳐, 나
귀찮아
매일 뭐해? 어디야? 밥은? 잘자
Baby 자기, 여보, 보고 싶어
다 부질없어
You got me like
(Oh-oh-oh) 이건 아무 감동 없는 love story
(Oh-oh-oh) 어떤 설렘도, 어떤 의미도
(Oh-oh-oh) 네겐 미안하지만 I'm not sorry
(Oh-oh-oh) 오늘부터 난, 난, 난
빛이 나는 솔로
빛이 나는 솔로
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
Used to be your girl
Now I'm used to being the GOAT
You're sittin' on your feelings, I'm sittin' on my throne
I ain't got no time for the troubles in your eyes
This time I'm only lookin' at me, myself and I
(I'm goin' solo)
I'ma do it on my own now
Now that you're alone, got you lookin' for a clone now
(So low)
That's how I'm gettin' down
Destined for this and the crown
Sing it loud like
(Oh-oh-oh) 이건 아무 감동 없는 love story
(Oh-oh-oh) 어떤 설렘도, 어떤 의미도
(Oh-oh-oh)(hah-ooh-ooh) 네겐 미안하지만 I'm not sorry
(Oh-oh-oh) 오늘부터 난, 난, 난
빛이 나는 솔로
빛이 나는 솔로
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
만남, 설렘, 감동 뒤엔
이별, 눈물, 후회, 그리움
홀로인 게 좋아, 난 나다워야 하니까
자유로운 바람처럼, 구름 위에 별들처럼
멀리 가고 싶어, 밝게 빛나고 싶어
Now I'm goin' slow-mo
빛이 나는 솔로
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
I'm going solo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo
The lyrics to Jennie's song SoLo paint a picture of a young woman who has grown tired of an unfulfilling romantic relationship. The first verse describes how the singer used to play the role of an innocent and charming girl, but has grown tired of pretending to be someone she is not. The chorus repeats the phrase "빛이 나는 솔로" or "shining solo," indicating that the singer is ready to embrace being on her own and shining as an individual.
The second verse furthers this idea of independence and throws in some clever wordplay. The singer calls herself the "GOAT," or the "greatest of all time," indicating that she no longer needs validation or support from anyone else. Instead of dealing with someone else's problems, she is focused solely on herself and her own success. The chorus repeats again, emphasizing this newfound freedom and embracing the solo life.
The bridge further emphasizes the theme of independence and self-discovery. The singer acknowledges the highs and lows of past relationships and how they have led her to this moment of wanting to be alone. She likens herself to a free-spirited breeze or stars on the clouds, wanting to travel far and shine bright on her own. The final repetition of the chorus drives this message home, with Jennie confidently declaring that she is "going solo."

I want to go far away and shine brightly
Now I'm goin' slow-mo, 빛이 나는 솔로
Now I am moving slowly and shining brightly as a solo artist
I'm going solo lo lo lo lo lo
I'm going solo, on my own
