''Overcome'' (1:44) contains two section: it begins with the mysterious-sounding melody of ''Lost'' from the track ''[[Brutes (music)|Brutes]]''. This effect is synthesized to create a distant like ambiance. Heavy percussion join in, and the motif repeats. Gradually, the section becomes more minor and gloomy, yet with a faint air of hopefulness about it. The piece plays when John-117 leads the UNSC convoy to the wall in the dessert and encounters [[Type-26 Wraith]]s defending the position. The second section features vocals, strings, and a harp, playing a ethereal ambiance. It plays softly in slight variations. This pieces plays when John-117 is inside the wall, then again when he enters the spire containing the [[Cartographer]], and continues into the cutscene in which he activates the Cartographer. The heavy percussion was incorporated into the later tracks ''[[Edge Closer]]'' and ''Escape'' (from ''[[Keep What You Steal]]''). It also plays during [[Firefight]] in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''.

''Small Victory'' (0:44) interrupts the previous piece with a rapid melody, much more stimulating then the previous sections. It is based mostly off of the Halo Theme, with strings, drums, and choir. It stops as suddenly as it started. The piece begins during the cutscene in which a [[Type-52 Phantom]]s interrupts the discussion between John-117 and [[343 Guilty Spark]] at the Cartographer.
