Bio: 62-year-old, vocalist, I like a quiet dinner and I'm a romantic sweetheart.

" Reba stops shaking " Shelby walked over to Reba at the computer and rubbed her shoulders, "I know I just don't know if I can do this " Shelby hugged Reba " you and Dad have been divorced for a year now" Reba Clicked the save button on the account and uploaded an old photo of herself.

" Mom I'm going out for a bit wanna come, I'm going to Chucks?" Reba was sitting at the piano on her phone " no that's all right I have a new song I'm working on for the new album". "I should be back by six if I'm any later don't wait up". Shelby kisses his mother on the cheek and grabs the keys to his truck from the dish in the hallway.

Reba gets down on her knees beside the piano " god I know I haven't prayed lately and I haven't been real good but lord, please give me the strength to make it through, and please watch over Shelby I love you lord amen ".

A few hours had gone by and Reba was watching tv and seen a headline on the news "16-year-old Sabrina Taylor was held at gunpoint by her father. Reba cleaned the tears from her eyes and started to sing to herself, Reba walked over to the piano and started playing random keys, and started to sing aloud. " have you looked around have you heard the sound of mamas crying, or do you turn away when you see the face of the innocent dying".

Reba sat there and realized that the piano wasn't the right instrument for the song, but she used it for her rough draft and continued " Oh have you looked around Have you heard the sound Of Mama's cryin', Or do you turn away When you see the face Of the innocent dyin', In these darkest days, Are you not afraid That it's too late.

Reba sat there for a bit thinking of a title for her new song and it hit her " Back to God" Reba wrote down the name and continued singing. " You gotta get down on your knees, believe
hold your hands and beg and plead Gotta keep on praying, You gotta cry, rain tears of pain, Pound the floor and scream His name, Cause we're still worth saving, Can't go on like this and live like this, We can't love like this
We gotta give this world back to God".

Reba had been writing for about an hour by now she got up from the piano and walked into her room and got undressed and put her pajamas on and got in bed. Right when Reba got in bed and turned over facing the wall her phone went off with a buzzing sound.
