—♡; a thread about how blackpink promoted independence, women empowerment, freedom & love through music.
SEE U LATER: it starts off with jisoo singing the line "there's nothing to be regretful about, i really did my best."

you may work really hard for something and still fail to achieve it. but you shouldn't regret anything, because you tried your best.
SEE U LATER: "i'm a boss b*tch!"

in the pre-chorus, jenlisa talks about how you shouldn't sulk over a man who couldn't see your worth. you should know your worth before anyone else.
KICK IT:
"but now i can dance for myself."

"never needed nothing else, just a little love from myself."

you don't need someone else to make you feel loved, when you can make yourself feel loved. self-love comes first. remember.
KTL:
(pre-chorus, chaesoo)

feeling sorry for forgetting about a man who only made you shed tears throughout the whole relationship? not under my roof.

this song also talks about how a person grows from being weak (their old self), to being strong (the person they are today).
KTL: (outro)

your so-called "love" will hurt you to the point it starts to k*ll you. but it doesn't have to end that way if you k*ll it first. it is sad, but accept it because it is the truth.

notice how they used "let's" — first person prulal. we, women, are in this together.
HYLT: "you should have ended me when you had the chance."

— blackpink: in whatever dark times or situations we encounter, we want everyone to have the strength and confidence to be able to rise up again.

SOLO: it's about a heartbroken innocent girl who transforms into a strong independent woman. it's also very realistic: the lyrics are sort of sulky at the beginning, but it gets stronger as it goes.
SOLO (BONUS):

"apart from the relationship status type of meaning, the song has a meaning of being true to yourself and being confident. so, i hope the listeners can embrace the message and enjoy the song as much as i did."

+ my point: blackpink definitely empowered me and a lot of people i know. your argument is invalid.
