"Overdrive", the fourth track of the extended play, is an R&B hip-hop song characterised by its heavy bass-driven beat shifts and dynamic vocal performances that alternate between power and delicacy, while its lyrics compare the experience of surpassing self-imposed limits to the exhilarating sensation of high speed. The fifth track, "Like a Bomb", is a dance song characterised by rhythmic funky grooves and diverse synthesizer arrangements, with lyrics that compare burgeoning emotions to a spark on a fuse and portray the excitement and attraction of falling in love. The last track, "In a Loop", is a pop anthem characterised by its sing-along chorus, powerful drum arrangements, and bright synthesizer-driven sound, conveying a hopeful message of enduring relationships amid life's recurring cycles and uncertainties.
