That’s What I’ll Be Lyrics – Baylee Lynn

Baylee Lynn steps into the spotlight with “That’s What I’ll Be,” a gentle powerhouse of a ballad that’s already tugging heartstrings ahead of its full spotlight on the Nobody Wants This Season 2 soundtrack.

Dropping October 23 via Netflix alongside cuts from Kacey Musgraves and Ella Langley, this track from The Core Records and Interscope captures the 17-year-old Nashville riser’s knack for blending raw vulnerability with that classic country warmth. Co-written with [Jenna Shuffler, AJ Pruis, and Mia Mantia] and produced by the GRAMMY-nominated [Pruis] it’s all soft piano ripples and acoustic strums cradling her soaring vocals, like a late-night talk that eases the weight of the world.

From teaching herself guitar at six in her Tennessee hometown to penning her first tune at 13, Baylee’s been chasing this sound since church choirs, drawing from Dolly Parton and Faith Hill for that timeless feel with a fresh twist. After her debut “Cautiously Optimistic” caught Billboard’s ear and follow-ups like “John, Dear” and “Heart On My Sleeve” built her buzz, this feels like her emotional breakthrough. Fans are sharing video clips on TikTok, calling it the perfect rom-com companion, and it’s already streaming strong on Spotify playlists. With Season 2’s messy love stories waiting, Baylee’s reminder to just show up couldn’t land better.
