About the Song
Girls is a powerful lead single by aespa, released on July 8, 2022, as part of their second mini album Girls under SM Entertainment. The track expands aespa’s signature metaverse narrative, portraying unity, resistance, and growth as the group confronts chaos together rather than alone. Built on an intense, cinematic soundscape, Girls blends bold vocals with a confrontational energy that reflects aespa’s evolving identity, reinforcing their message of strength, solidarity, and self-belief at a defining moment in their 2022 discography.

Wake up and stand your ground in a deadlier war, holding your position with both feet as the enemy’s hook closes in—Black Mamba doesn’t scare us, and we’ll break it. We’ve changed since we crossed the wilderness and came back; the distorted “æ” is reshaped into something truer to who I am, a presence so fierce it looks like we’ve become one. A spark left behind grows into a massive evil that tries to isolate you and drain you, but we reunite—together again—so you’re not alone as we rush in, beat it back, and raise our sound. If you’ve found the memory of what we sacrificed for, show yourself, appear right here, right now. Follow, watch, be stunned—we’re coming; shout, listen, call us—we’re coming. In the middle of chaos we bloom as “We Them Girls,” carrying the courage to face fear, always together. In this meta universe and parallel worlds, everything has meaning; we share a language of empathy, trade warmth, and chase the value of good will. I’m finally stronger—no more being shaken or played—yet twisted algorithms split sides and weaponize existence until destruction swallows it, and that’s when evil begins. Still, I’m not alone: I want to protect you, the first REKALL we had, to hold you so you can feel it even without SYNK DIVE. We keep coming—bow down, my skill; get loud, my sound; upgrade—because the future we’ll open with friends and with nævis is real, and we’ll meet it. You are the me in the mirror, a being that shines even brighter—say it: we’ll be together, always.
