This song is a power-injecting anthem for female empowerment. The catchy chorus “Don’t mess with the girls” is a warning to those who underestimate women’s strength. The message of this song is clear-  the girls control their own lives and they refuse to be silenced by others. Through THE GIRLS, BLACKPINK not only asserts their confidence but also inspires fans to do so.
