According to LAtimes, the song focuses on a dwindling and slowly diminishing relationship, surrounded by an alcohol problem.

Some of the lyrics include : " We used to make love/ When you called I would follow / Now the only thing you love is a bottle / The only thing you got left is a shadow."

Although this song will not be included on the new album, X, according to the “Fine China” singer, stands for many different things: "'X' is almost...the reject," Chris Brown says. "X defines who I am -- whether it means X being forbidden or blunt. It's who I am now, transitioning as a man and not trying to focus on the past stuff and trials and tribulations. It's the unspoken voice from me."

Taking inspirations from: Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, and Sam Cooke he has plans of adding a soulful twist for all of his fans to hear according to Hollywoodlife

The producers on X, among others, included: Timbaland, Drumma Boy Polow Da Don, Pharrell, and more.

Many fans are excited of what this new album entails, but what do you think of Chris Brown’s new song “I Can’t Win?”
