Sacrifice is the lead-off single to the upcoming 4th full-length studio album by The Steadies. The song is about having to take that leap of faith and going all-in in order to achieve success in whatever you choose to do in life. Lead singer and songwriter Earl Pereira read the quote "If you don't sacrifice for your dream, your dream will be the sacrifice", which really resonated with him and was the inspiration to write this song. Because as an artist, Pereira felt he had to make so many tough choices, included giving up his marriage, in order to follow his musical career path. The lyrics are quite poignant in how sometimes people expect things to come easy and free in today's social media driven society. But it's the ones who are willing to work hard will be the ones rewarded, for example in the first verse Pereira sings:"Another story another reel, that ain't reality you're living. Cause you need more than just sex appeal, success is earned and never given". Musicically, the song has that quintessential upbeat Steadies groove with ska-pop-punk influences from bands such as The Police, Sublime, and No Doubt.  Whild catch anthemic melodies soar alongside rocking riffs by guitarist Chris Valleau. The song even features some horns for some added fun!
