The drama only escalates further on ‘Mercy’. Most importantly, the production of ‘Got Me In Chains’ is tight and punchy, hitting its hardest at the right climaxes. It may sound like a recipe for chaos on paper, but the vast number of elements incorporated to make this song so wholly complex is used to their utmost potential. Warped beats, striking layers of techno and R&B successfully create a foggy atmosphere that breathe life into its lyrics. On ‘Got Me In Chains’, MONSTA X paint an impassioned picture of a desire for someone that’s so overwhelming that it threatens to tread the line of addiction. Everything about ‘Autobahn’ keeps listeners on their toes, but it’s the lyrics that pull the most weight: “Autobahn, autobahn / This place is too cramped for me to play, too cramped / Playin’ in the large waters baby, that’s my specialty.” The former pulls off the group’s propensity for suggestive lyrics while sticking to the mini-album’s theme, all while riding a club-ready electronic beat. “Hitting the gear on the heavy traffic of the city / Only looking forward, no back, back / Competition is always thrilling,” they say in the opening seconds of the song, “There is no doubt, no cap, cap / This is my reality / Nothing’s impossible, ability / What’s hidden backstage is duality.” They make clever use of metaphors to drive this message home, comparing the plethoric nature of the K-pop industry to heavy traffic during rush hour. “ delineates MONSTA X’s identity as a group that shines in an era where there’s an infinite supply of competitors,” the boyband said of the track during a press conference for its release, per The Korea Herald.
This pronouncement is most tangible on the record’s opening and lead track ‘Rush Hour’, skillfully penned by Joohoney, Kihyun and I.M.
