EVNNE “Backtalk” Lyrics

Hangul

You know all the past times
Planet’s light
척은 안 해, cool vibe
True or lie
It’s time to rise up
Yeah
포기는 없어 계속 들이받아
Pave a new way

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (손가락질 비슷해 다 backtalk)
뱉어, 뱉어, 뱉어
뱉어 (뱉어버려 침 freakin’ backtalk)
가끔은 그게 날 조여도
난 보란 듯이 부숴놔 더
Complexity 숨겨 너의 ID
Keep it going 조작, 억까들 날 막아도

Oh, my 고장 났어, boo
탈락했던 나란 loser
You’re so goofy
뻔한 건 nonsense
백지부터 다시
Do my thing, smiling face, huh?
꿈, plan, stages
I never changed

뭘 그리 물어, again
깨어나든 해파리든 we go our own way
더 이상 없어 겁 이젠 잃을 것도 없기에
반말로 패도 난 못 느껴 pain, get ready, set and go

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (손가락질 비슷해 다 backtalk)
뱉어, 뱉어, 뱉어
뱉어 (뱉어버려 침 freakin’ backtalk)
가끔은 그게 날 조여도
난 보란 듯이 부숴놔 더
Complexity 숨겨 너의 ID
Keep it going 조작, 억까들 날 막아도

비 내려도 불씨는 머리 위에 fire
파란 머리 걘 이제 fabulous
It was high but climbed alone
그 틈에서 일궈낸 기적

누구는 말해 쟤들이 뭔데 니네 법규 I don’t care
실컷 떠들어봐라 뒤져봐도
우린 유일무이
포기는 없어 계속 들이받아, pave a new way

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (손가락질 비슷해 다 backtalk)
뱉어, 뱉어, 뱉어
뱉어 (뱉어버려 침 freakin’ backtalk)
Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
뱉어, 뱉어, 뱉어
Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (부숴버려 다 freakin’ backtalk)

맘대로 되는 게 없는 world
발버둥 치는 게 답인 격

Romanized

You know all the past times
Planet’s light
Cheogeun an hae, cool vibe
True or lie
It’s time to rise up
Yeah
Pogineun eopseo gyesok deuribada
Pave a new way

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (songarakjil biseuthae da backtalk)
Baeteo, baeteo, baeteo
Baeteo (baeteobeoryeo chim freakin’ backtalk)
Gakkeumeun geuge nal joyeodo

Translation

You know all the past times
Planet’s light
No pretending cool vibe
True or lie
It’s time to rise up
Yeah
No such thing as giving up, keep charging on
Pave a new way

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (Pointing fingers it’s all the same backtalk)
Spit it, spit it, spit it
Spit it (Spit all of it out freakin’ backtalk)
Sometimes it tightens me up
Keep staring I’ll break it even more
Complexity hide your ID
Keep it going your deceits and nitpicks to stop me

Oh my it’s broken booh!
Eliminated, now I’m a loser
You’re so goofy
Obviousness is nonsense
From the blank again
Do my thang, smiling face, huh?
Dream, plan, stages
I never changed

Why do you keep asking again
We’re the wake on a jellyfish we go our own way
Not afraid anymore I’ve got nothing to lose
Talk down to me but I won’t feel the pain, get ready, set and go

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (Pointing fingers it’s all the same backtalk)
Spit it, spit it, spit it
Spit it (Spit all of it out freakin’ backtalk)
Sometimes it tightens me up
Keep staring I’ll break it even more
Complexity hide your ID
Keep it going your deceits and nitpicks to stop me

Rain comes piling on but my head is still on fire
That blue-haired kid is now fabulous
It was high but climbed alone
A miracle out of that crack

Some might say who are they your rules I don’t care
Talk all you want and keep looking
We’re one of a kind
No such thing as giving up, keep charging on, pave a new way

Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (Pointing fingers it’s all the same backtalk)
Spit it, spit it, spit it
Spit it (Spit all of it out freakin’ backtalk)
Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Spit it, spit it, spit it
Backtalk, backtalk, backtalk
Backtalk (Breaking through them all freakin’ backtalk)

Nothing will go your way in this world
Struggling is the only answer

EVNNE “Backtalk” Meaning

EVNNE “Backtalk” is a high-energy, rap-driven track that marks a bold turning point in the group’s identity, centered on confidence, honesty, and defiance. At its core, the song is about speaking your truth especially in the face of criticism. “Backtalk” isn’t just about talking back for the sake of rebellion, but about rejecting unfair judgment and reclaiming your own narrative.

One of the most distinctive elements is its use of self-diss. Instead of hiding past struggles such as their experiences as trainees or on survival shows the members openly reference them. By calling out their own past insecurities, they transform vulnerability into strength and authenticity, proving how far they’ve come.

The track also reflects a strong theme of independence. It emphasizes carving out their own path, rather than following expectations or trends imposed by others. This message aligns with their transition into an official 5-member lineup, symbolizing a rebirth and new beginning.

Musically, “Backtalk” leans into a raw, digicore-inspired sound with distorted 808s and heavy trap elements, reinforcing the song’s rebellious and unfiltered energy. This sonic shift highlights a more mature, aggressive, and self-assured image.
