Featuring their two-week No. 1 hit “Greatest Love Story” and their new single “Born To Love You” the collection has dominated the top of the charts since its release.
“Over the past five years we wanted to ride this dream as far as it would go and it’s hard to find the words to describe our debut record at the top of the chart,” said lead singer Brandon Lancaster in a statement. “We couldn’t be more grateful to see people gravitating towards these new songs that represent who we are, and its been wild to see these crowds sing every line back to us.”

“Born To Love You” Lyrics
I was born in a town full of red pine trees
County sign says “follow your dreams”
Westbound train makes the whole town shake
Friday night lights decide your fate
Born again in a church where the steeple’s white
Preacher preach Book of John and my momma cried
Meaning of life was in verse two
Didn’t make sense ’til I found you
I could search the world from south to north
But I’ve already found what I’m looking for
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
Looking in your eyes, yeah it’s all so clear
Every time you smile, I know why I’m here
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
I was a wild child between lost and found
Then you spoke my name, it was a sweet sound
Rescue kiss and you pulled me in
All my life baby, where you been
‘Cause I could search the world from south to north
But I’ve already found what I’m looking for
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
Looking in your eyes, yeah it’s all so clear
Every time you smile, I know why I’m here
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
‘Cause I could search the world from south to north
But I’ve already found what I’m looking for
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
Looking in your eyes, yeah it’s all so clear
Every time you smile, I know why I’m here
Wherever I go and whatever I do
I was born to love you, I was born to love you
