Reba McEntire dropped new music during The Voice on Tuesday night (May 7). The lyrics to “I Can’t” speak a message so many need to hear.

The song from McEntire’s first studio album in five years breaks hard news to someone in need of being set free. “I Can’t” is a new kind of empowerment song — the famous singer is simply saying “I can’t” be your crutch and live my life to the fullest at the same time.

This song shows she’s focused on a new album, instead of an additional reimagining of her classic catalog. Now five decades into a Hall of Fame career, McEntire is staying busier than ever, with music, a potential NBC television show and her role as a judge on The Voice.

Here Are the Lyrics to Reba McEntire, “I Can’t”:

I’ve got the thunder in my bones, I’ve got the trouble in my soul / Drowning in tears my eyes were too proud to cry / I hear you knockin’ at my door, but I can’t open it no more / ‘Cause this heart’s half full of rain and risin’ high / Sometimes all that you can do is just survive.

I can’t row you across right now / I can’t row you across right now / I’m too busy building a bridge / I can’t throw you a line right now / I can’t throw you a line right now / I’m too busy tryin’ to live.

I’ve been a fool for holding on, I’ve been a fool for being strong / I’ve been a fool for love and I’ll be a fool again / As soon as the rain stops pouring down, as soon as I find some higher ground / I’ll be good as new but I can’t tell you when / So, just keep on striking matches until then… ‘cause.

I can’t burn you a flame right now / I can’t burn you a flame right now / I’m too busy seeing the light / I can’t lift you up right now / I can’t lift you up right now / I’m too busy tryin’ to fly.

So, let go the anchor, let go the chain / Don’t reach for me and don’t call my name / Shake off the past and, baby, just swim for the shore / Blow me a kiss and hope for the best / Wish what you will and take what you get / Do what you want but I can’t save you no more.

I got the thunder in my bones, I got the trouble in my soul / Drownin’ in tears my eyes were too proud to cry / I can’t whisper a prayer right now / I can’t whisper a prayer right now
I’m too busy, baby, sayin’ goodbye.

Let go the anchor, let go the chain / Don’t reach for me and don’t call my name / Shake off the past and baby just swim for the shore / Blow me a kiss and hope for the best / Wish what you will and take what you get / Do what you want but I can’t save you no more.

Do what you want but I can’t save you no more / Do what you want but I can’t save you no more.
