Deshawn White and Oceans Chest Unveil Country Single "What I Can" from Upcoming Album Let God and Let Go
The Californer/10314935

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Californer -- Rather than rushing a release last year, White chose to hold the track until it was fully ready—because, as he puts it, "this song means the world to me." Now fully realized, "What I Can" offers a rare blend of lyrical honesty and musical warmth that invites listeners into the emotional layers of being a parent.

The song unfolds in stages—beginning with the awe and uncertainty of becoming a first-time father, then moving through the bittersweet moments of letting your child step out into the world for school. It's about the fear, the love, and the learning curve that comes with trusting others to care for your child—and how those challenges only grow as your children grow.

Eventually, the narrative moves toward a looming milestone many parents face: when kids are ready to leave the nest. That transition, White says, is "probably the scariest phase of fatherhood." While he hasn't reached that stage yet, the song is a promise to be there, no matter what—doing what he can, just like always.

With sweeping harmonies from Oceans Chest and a production style that balances intimacy with cinematic depth, "What I Can" is more than a song—it's a reflection of values that unite us all: love, resilience, and the desire to protect what matters most.

Deshawn White and Oceans Chest invite you to pre save "What I Can" now—and share it with those who raised you, stood by you, or inspired you to give life your best.
