All land animals came from fish like creatures, monkeys included. We just came from monkeys more recently.
Lineage from fish (roughly) goes Fish>Amphibian>Reptile>Synapsid>Mammal>Primate>Ape>Human
This is missing like a thousand steps for the sake of brevity.
The most common issue we run into is that these are all colloquial terms. There are scientific terms we should use when talking about evolution but we don’t. In place of fish should be “vertibrates”. All vertibrates came from the first creature with a spine, which was a fish like creature. You can likewise do this with everything before Synapsid.
Were we monkeys or not bruh?
