This young fella might be my top pick for American Idol. There are a few reasons for this I’ll get into in a different post. For now, here are the lyrics of the original song he performed during Hollywood week, called “Foolish Pride.”
Don’t go wasting any breath on me
I ain’t what they say I am
and I’ve been around way too long to try to be a different kind of man
Don’t go wasting any time on me
I promise time don’t mean a thing
It’s just a word people use to try to make them feel like something’s gonna change
But I’m tired of this foolish pride
This dark inside, it haunts me
When I try to move it carries me away from what my head’s telling my heart
Oh, and when I come back down to my darling, I know just what she’ll say
Oh boy, I love you if you just put that foolish pride away
