"Carry You" originated as a track from Adkins' side project Go Big Casino. Its acoustic guitars evoked the "Futures" song "Kill"; Fields contributes keyboard. Talking about the song, Adkins said that with "distance and time, it becomes easier to invent qualities that may not have existed in a relationship." "Electable (Give It Up)" is a political punk track that uses synthesizers in the vein of the Killers. Adkins wrote it in anger in regards to the "lack of intelligent political discourse in America." The song features additional vocals from Ross, Finn and Jackson Adkins, and Ava Lind, as well as additional bass from Fields. "Gotta Be Somebody's Blues" is a dark song with strings that returned to the sound of "Futures". The track talked about apathy and defending one's own beliefs.
