John Smyths has made something that actually sticks with you. “Now I’m Wiser” is the kind of country song that doesn’t need gimmicks, it just needs to be real, and it absolutely is.
The song opens with acoustic guitar that immediately draws you in. John sings like someone who’s lived through everything he’s writing about, and you believe every word. He talks about mistakes, lost love, and making peace with life without turning it into some lesson you’re forced to learn. The lyrics feel like he’s talking to himself as much as to you. That’s exactly why they land so hard. Every part of this song knows exactly why it’s there. Nothing’s wasted, nothing’s added just to sound fancy. You actually want to listen to it more than once because there’s something different to catch each time.
John has put together a song about getting older and figuring things out. It’s for anybody who’s gotten knocked around by life and came out the other side with a clearer head.
