Overcome is a song from the British alternative rockband Nothing but Thieves. It came out on May 10th 2023. It is the second single from their fourth studioalbum Dead Club City, which came out later that year.

The song, written by bandmembers Joseph Langridge-Brown, Conor Mason and Dominic Craik, is strongly inspired by the synthesizersound from the 1980's. According to the band, Overcome feels like a  'throw your stuff in a bag and get away' song'. Bandmember Conor Mason said he wrote most of the song while working on his project Man-Made Sunshine, but he wasn't sure if it was a good fit. He then showed it to the other bandmembers and after some changes were made to the melodies and lyrics, it felt right to connect the song to this record.
