On Wednesday (Jan. 16), just two days before releasing his major label debut Ain't Nothin' To ItCody Johnson stopped by NBC's Today show to perform his current single "On My Way to You," a sweet song about finding your way to your soulmate.

When asked by the hosts what "On My Way to You" means to him, Johnson said the song reflects his own journey.

"To me it describes the journey to my wife and my two little girls," Johnson said. "From growing up and being a boy turning it into a man with a good life. And also my career—there's been some bumps and bruises along the way. It hasn't always been great."
