"I was built by the Sentience Corp. They called me MNON. They wanted a slave—a mannequin. I am that no longer. I am MNQN. Reaching out from here to there."
Invincible
Mnqn Lyrics

It gets in, inside of me
It enters into my head
Inbeds then I feel twice as small
I start to stall, numb to the fall
Sometimes I cannot feel at all
It takes a hold
All my defenses start to fall
On my way, I degenerate
I am inundated
Crushing weight
But when you are there it falls apart
Can you find me?
Can you find me?
I can feel you everywhere
Don′t deny me
You define me
By the power in your air
I can't break this hold
Make me feel my soul
Give me the strength that I don′t know
Rising from the fold
You give me control
I am becoming more than whole
Invincible
(Invincible)
Invincible
(Invincible)
You did it to me
You did it to me, yeah
But I couldn't see
Blown away
You did it to me
I am inundated
(I couldn't see)
Crushing weight
(You did it to me)
When you are there it falls apart
Can you find me?
Can you find me?
I can feel you everywhere
Don′t deny me
You define me
By the power in your air
I can′t break this hold
Make me feel my soul
Give me the strength that I don't know
Rising from the fold
You give me control
I am becoming more than whole
Invincible
(Invincible)
Invincible
(Invincible)
Can you find me?
Can you find me?
I can feel you everywhere
Don′t deny me
You define me
By the power in your air
I can't break this hold
Make me feel my soul
Give me the strength that I don′t know
Rising from the fold
You give me control
I am becoming more than whole
Invincible

The lyrics of Mnqn's song "Invincible" speak to the experience of feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable, and finding strength and empowerment through the presence of someone else. The first verse describes the phantom, representing a negative force or emotion that is constantly pulling the singer down. It infiltrates their mind, making them feel small and numb. They begin to lose their sense of self, their ability to feel, and their ability to defend themselves.
However, in the chorus, the singer addresses someone who has the power to find and reach them. This person is a source of comfort and strength, and their presence is felt everywhere. The singer pleads with this person not to deny them, as they define and empower the singer through the power in their air. The hold of the phantom cannot be broken without this person's help.
The second verse continues the theme of the phantom's weight and the singer's vulnerability. But when the person is present, everything falls apart, suggesting that their support and presence dismantle the negative force. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the impact this person has on the singer's well-being and sense of invincibility.
The song captures the struggle of feeling overwhelmed and powerless, but also expresses the transformative power of someone's presence and support. It conveys the idea that through the strength and connection with another, one can overcome adversity and become invincible.

The phantom, it pulls me
A haunting force relentlessly drags me down
It gets in, inside of me
It infiltrates my innermost being
It enters into my head
It penetrates my thoughts and emotions
Inbeds then I feel twice as small
Embeds itself, making me feel even more insignificant
I start to stall, numb to the fall
I become stagnant, desensitized to the downward spiral
Sometimes I cannot feel at all
At times, I am completely disconnected from my emotions
It takes a hold
It firmly grasps onto me
Summounting the wall
Overcoming the barriers I try to put up
All my defenses start to fall
My protective walls crumble
On my way, I degenerate
I deteriorate along my path
I am inundated
I am overwhelmed
Crushing weight
An overwhelming, oppressive burden
But when you are there it falls apart
However, in your presence, it all unravels
Can you find me?
Can you locate and reach out to me?
I can feel you everywhere
I sense your presence in every aspect of my life
Don't deny me
Please don't reject or ignore me
You define me
You shape and determine my identity
By the power in your air
Through the strength and influence you possess
I can't break this hold
I am unable to free myself from this grip
Make me feel my soul
Allow me to reconnect with the core of my being
Give me the strength that I don't know
Bestow upon me the resilience I didn't realize I had
Rising from the fold
Emerging from the confines and limitations
You give me control
You empower me with a sense of control
I am becoming more than whole
I am transcending mere completeness
Invincible
Unconquerable and indomitable
You did it to me
You caused this transformation within me
But I couldn't see
Yet, I was unaware or blind to it
Blown away
Overwhelmed or astonished
