The tune is, overall, something completely different than anything fans have heard from the Columbia, TN native before. Instead of his usual beer drinking, honky-tonk rocker sound, he tapped into a much softer side with a piano melody. His vocals cut through the track with his signature grit and twang accompanied by clear and heartfelt storytelling that comes straight from the heart, bringing the deeply personal lyrics to life in a way that cuts deep.<\/p>\n
He uses his real-life emotions to paint a vivid picture of all the things his father could do that\u2019s good, from hunting and fishing to coaching a team to victory, fixing things, and protecting his children from fear. But instead, he acknowledges how his father chose to ignore all that to spend his time cheating on his wife.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could hunt and fish and build a dream\/ Take some third string boys to a state champ ring\/ Make a good buddy outta any old junkyard dog\/ That would wanna bite\/ You could break any bolt that was wrenched too tight\/ Run the boogie man out of my room at night\/ Yeah its crazy to think\/ Daddy you could do anything\/ But you couldn\u2019t love mama right,\u201d he sings.<\/p>\n
Profitt began teasing \u201cYou Could Do Anything\u201d just a few weeks ago and it has already made waves unlike he\u2019s ever experienced in his career before. Profit says the response from listeners has been so incredible that he\u2019s chosen to play it as the final song in his live shows, instead of his radio single.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like that song alone is a career defining song for me. I caught my dad cheating on my mom back in January. I wrote a song about it. I\u2019ve never had a response to a song like this,\u201d he explained during an episode of the God\u2019s Country podcast. \u201cI play it last in my set\u2026In my live shows, I just want it to be a rollercoaster \u2013 Up, down, up, down, up, down \u2013 and then right there on the last of it, that\u2019s when I play this really personal song.\u201d<\/p>\n
The singer goes on to explain that when he wrote \u201cYou Could Do Anything\u201d with Matt McKinney, Casey Brown and Taylor Phillips, he never had any intentions of sharing it with the world. It was something he wrote for himself as a way to cope with an incredibly difficult and confusing experience in his life.<\/p>\nPhoto Courtesy of Shane Profitt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nHowever, after sharing it with his other half, Chloe, and breaking down over the powerful story together, Profitt realized it was something that could make a huge impact on his listeners.<\/p>\n
\u201cI cried like a little girl going back home after I wrote it, listening to the demo. And I got home and she was like, \u2018You okay?\u2019 I said, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 She said, \u2018You get a good one today?\u2019 I said, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 She said, \u2018It\u2019s about your dad, isn\u2019t it?\u2019 I said, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 And so she asked if she could hear it. I played it for her and we stood there in the kitchen\u2026I played it. And dude, we cried. We cried and cried and cried.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
