"Hustle Fatigue" is an anthem for anyone waking up feeling like they're already dead before the day begins. It explores the pain of living in a world that demands everything from you, and the crucial moment you decide to say "no." Moving from the grey fog of the morning alarm to the clarity of friendship, this track is about reclaiming your life from the machine.

A swirling Psych-Punk anthem about burnout and reclaiming your time.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]

Once I wake up
It feels like I'm dead as the clock sounds its siren again
And the white light steals all the rest so I'm lost in this place
An a system designed to extract all of our time
So we're left with nothing but the pain and the fear that I'm wasting my life
All for nothing

[Chorus]

I can't take it
In the rain
All the days bleed together like ink on the page till I can take it
Can't contain all the rage and the shame and the pain
But you know

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

There's a light in the darkness and it cuts through the gray
In the distance I know it's my friend
They are calling my name so I'm learning to say no when the world tries to claim what is mine
So I'll take back my time for the moments and people that give me life
My time

[Chorus]

I can't take it
In the rain
All the days bleed together like ink on the page till I can take it
Can't contain all the rage and the shame and the pain
But you know

[Chorus]

I can't take it
In the rain
All the days bleed together like ink on the page till I can take it
Can't contain all the rage and the shame and the pain
But you know

[Instrumental]

Conduit - Hustle Fatigue

"Not From Here" is a swirling Post-Punk trip through economic anxiety. Opening with a wall of feedback and a wah-heavy bass groove, the track uses phaser-drenched guitars and reverse cymbals to create a space that feels both expansive and claustrophobic.

Blending the grit of Garage Rock with the textures of Neo-Psych, it builds into a chorus of layered gang vocals that cry out against a system rigged from the start. It’s atmospheric, raw, and heavy with delay.

[Verse]
I am not from here
My days are slow
We all get along
Do you think you can get on?

[Pre-Chorus]
Try not to interfere

[Chorus]
We get what we want
And we know what we want
We know what we need
So tell me what you need

[Verse 2]
We got so much work to do
I guess it isn't work if it's what we love to do
You can join the ride if you think you're one of us

[Pre-Chorus]
You should have no fear

[Chorus]
We get what we want
And we know what we want
We know what we need
So tell me what you need

Conduit - Not From Here

This track is a wake-up call for a generation waiting on a savior or a lottery ticket to fix their lives. "Modern Problems" critiques the status quo and the apathy of those "diggin' their own hole." It’s a gritty Garage Rock reflection on how we cope when there is no end in sight, and the realization that the only way out is to save yourself.

A swirling Dance-Punk anthem about anxiety, apathy, and the status quo.

[Verse 1]
People holdin' up the status quo
Cryin'
"Oh no
We won't let go"
Now
Everybody's sufferin' in the same boat
They'd rather not know
They're diggin' their own hole
Now you're waitin' on a Saviour to appear
Or the lottery to fix your life
There's gotta be another way out of here
You gotta be your own Saint Peter tonight

[Chorus]
Modern problems
They are just so
So
Modern problems
How do we cope?
Modern problems
No end in sight
How do we make it through the night?

[Verse 2]
People screamin' that the world's not fair
With no clue how they got there
And all the lies that they've been fed for years
Are in one ear and out the other ear
Now you're waitin' on a Saviour to appear
Or the lottery to fix your life
There's gotta be another way out of here
You gotta be your own Saint Peter tonight

[Chorus]
Modern problems
They are just so
So
Modern problems
How do we cope?
Modern problems
No end in sight
How do we make it through the night?

[Bridge]
All your hopes and dreams
Hang on a thread
You better wake up now
Or you'll wake up dead

[Chorus]
Modern problems
They are just so
So
Modern problems
How do we cope?
Modern problems
No end in sight
How do we make it through the night?
