대동단결 (Stand Together)
In “Stand Together” from the ‘3rd Album – Fatal Love,’ MONSTA X is determined to overcome challenges thrown at them and to stick together as one unit. The group repeats the line “Hashtag, fact check,” needing and wanting the whole, verified truth. They also claim themselves as “the best best,” asserting their confidence and capabilities. The song promotes unity, mutual support, and strength during hard times.
Wildfire
MONSTA X gets personal with “Wildfire” from their ’11th Mini Album – Shape of Love.’ “Wildfire” is a destructive love story showing intense and complex emotions. The piano instrumental gives it an intense feeling, along with the sounds of the fire in the background gradually building. The listener can feel the wildfire spreading across the room and they want to escape, but also feel the desperation for love and comfort wanted by MONSTA X.
Mercy
“Mercy” from their 10th mini album ‘No Limit’ describes loneliness, pain, and a great want for forgiveness. MONSTA X describes the isolation and wants someone to save them from their internal struggles; because of this feeling of isolation, it draws a distance between themselves and the one they love. They feel uncontrollable and trapped in their emotions. Repeated throughout the song, they plea for the mercy and salvation of their significant other, which can bring them emotional comfort and relief.
Deny
MONSTA X explores a one-sided relationship mixed with confusion and longing in “Deny.” In their most recent mini-album, ‘Reason,’ the song explains their frustrations of being in love with someone who doesn’t share the same feelings. One line in the chorus, “Can’t take my eyes off you,” shows their inability to release their attraction towards the other person. The song also showcases the internal struggle of trying to move on.
Find You
MONSTA X wants to reunite with someone no longer a present factor in their life with “Find You.” Coming from the mini-album ‘Follow – Find You,’ the song talks about an emotional distance between the members and a loved one. The loved one remains constant and unforgettable in their mind regardless of the distance. This person was a holder of pain for them, but now fills their life with air and fills the empty voids. In the outro, the group promises to find this person whenever and wherever they may be and hopes for a chance to live a dream with that person forever.
Deja Vu
“Deja Vu” comes from MONSTA X’s 5th mini-album ‘The Code.’ The song has a repeating pattern of familiarity in an uncertain and confusing world. MONSTA X describes an overwhelming feeling of familiarity and connectedness with someone. The group acknowledges their past, describing it as a “break out” moment, confirming the feeling of deja vu. They choose to navigate through their uncertainties and confusion, finally embracing their destiny and running toward the bright light ahead.
