Jonny West is a singer who hit the American Idol stage for the 2020 season. He actually never thought he would do something like this, but his singer girlfriend Margie Mays pushed him to do it. Margie also auditioned for American Idol and the two will appear in the new season. So who is Jonny West ? Let’s find out!
1. Jonny has his own band aptly named the “Jonny West Band” and he performs his unique songs at local spots.
2. He has an official music video out called “I’ll See.” Watch it below!
Here are the lyrics to his song (Credit Jonny West YouTube):
Fearing all I might regret, on the road that’s traveled less
If all it takes is falling in than I guess I’m on the edge
They’re all giving their two cents when I didn’t ask for it
Maybe cuz they know what’s next and that’s a life less fortunate
I’m holding out for somethin that I want
Everybody’s into my head (careful what you wish for x2)
If I can’t find happiness I’ll walk away from this life
I’m told over and over again it’s not all paradise
But I’ll see when I see with my own eyes
I don’t want to go sell out now but I want to play shows to sell out crowds
And I want to be known for the words I belt
when they hear my flow, know it’s no one else
Get it goin I ain’t even gotta think yet
You don’t make a splash, can’t even get the sink wet
I walk in the room that room stirs, you make nobody nervous, couldn’t even make Keith sweat
I’ll be the first and last and all in between like it’s all chromatic ballin addict it’s all a matter of time, pretty simple if it’s all a matter of rhymes
Let’s talk about a five year plan, wait 5 year plan? Man I’m thinkin more before the night has ended
In a rat race with these mice of men and I just plan to drive by in my sedan with nitrous in it might die highly dented with a license that is likely suspended but I’ll reach that finish line
Plus, I’ll eat yours before I finish mine I’m that hungry
But who am I kiddin, I sit back and watch like who isn’t winning
Can’t stick to a job seems like nothing that suits me is fitting the smile is fake when gold teeth are grinning
Surrounded by hounding with all these opinions, my business is business and everyone’s in it
cynics say that I won’t break out an image
Well thanks for the ceiling I’ll see you when I hit
If I can’t find happiness, I’ll walk away from this life
I’m told over and over again, it’s not all paradise
But I’ll see when I see with my own eyes
Don’t tell me how it will turn out for myself if I try to shake the odds
I’d give the shirt off my back to prove we’re not all cut from the same cloth
Our life stories are not the same plot
We don’t get off at the same stops
So I’d like to find out for myself if you don’t mind
I’d like to see what I’ll find with my own two eyes
I’ll see when I see with my own eyes
