The song surged from outside the Top 20 to #1 in just two weeks, driven by strong streaming numbers, rapid fan adoption, and immediate live-show impact. The achievement comes in the middle of Riot Saints’ current U.S. tour and follows a packed Seattle kickoff that drew more than 8,300 fans, signaling a turning point for the band’s momentum. “We never chased charts,” said frontman Jace Ryder. “This song came from a real place, and seeing it connect like this means more than any number.” Released as part of the band’s singles-first strategy, “We Were Never Meant to Win” has resonated with listeners for its raw, unfiltered take on survival, frustration, and endurance. The track now sits at the top of the chart with over $3 million in weekly revenue, outperforming releases from established mainstream artists.
