Backstory:

Greedy Effort was born in the small town of Kingsburg, California, where four childhood friends – Jesse Jacobs, Martin King, Ryan Knox, and Leo Vincent – found their bond through a mutual love for music. Having shared several stages in their school and college days, their music journey took a serious turn when they won a local band competition. This achievement spurred them to take their passion to the next level, convincing them to drop their respective jobs and careers to give their all to the band, hence the name ‘Greedy Effort’.

Their journey was a rollercoaster ride, filled with ups and downs. The band hustled for a few years, performing at local gigs, music festivals and eventually got their break with a record deal from a prominent label. Their music, a blend of soulful lyrics and energetic tunes, resonating with the struggles of modern youth, started gaining attention and admiration from all over the world.

Title: “Running in Circles”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[C]Lost in the haze of the [G]city lights,
[F]Running in circles, lost in the [Am]night
[C]Chasing dreams that are [G]just out of sight,
[F]We’ve got nothing but [Am]time to fight.

(Chorus)
[C]Running in circles, [G]never giving up
[F]We’re Greedy Effort, we’ll [Am]drink from the cup
[C]Chasing the horizon, [G]ready to erupt,
[F]We’ve got the spirit that’s [Am]never corrupt.

(Verse 2)
[C]Under the stars, we [G]make our pact,
[F]Bound by music, that’s a [Am]fact.
[C]In this journey, there’s [G]no turning back,
[F]With each chord, we [Am]launch our attack.

(Chorus)
[C]Running in circles, [G]never slowing down,
[F]We’re Greedy Effort, [Am]we wear the crown.
[C]With every heartbeat, [G]every town,
[F]Our music will echo, [Am]our resounding sound.
