Try Me

My breaking point 
has been reached
one wrong look is
gonna end in bloodshed
I'm a ticking time bomb
come test me 
I'll leave you in pieces
believe me this
when it comes down to
you or me 
we both already know the answer
so step up or step off
because I would love to
destroy you

My Heart Beats Your Name

Love to me is something I chase,
it's nothing but searching for hurt,
everything in life has it's end, I never
wanted to love in the first place the
heart wants what my brain can't control,
no matter the fact my love dies with my 
last breath, it's not  in my nature to quit
on something I started, there's still hope
as long as our eyes see the stars that 
I pray on to direct you back to me, I'm just 
Writing our drama before I write our
happy ending, even if it's not in this life 
I promise to find you in the next one and 
never let you go!

Baby On the Way

A new chapter has begun in the book of Tarr.
This page starts a different journey then I'm 
use to. I'm excited to bring my seed into this world
I can't lie I'm scared at times. I'm still just a 
Human. I promise to you my child ill always be 
right by your side. The world is cruel today, I will
guide you through it the best I can. Your my reason
for life. I love you more then myself and your not
here yet. I will be honored to have you call me 
Dad

Reggae and Sensi

I free my mind 
and let the music
take control of my
ears take my mind 
to mystical heights 
bumpin my head to
the funky sounds 
twist another one 
let marley show 
you all the love 
let the music hit you
for it won't ever hurt
this mellow mood 
has got me so burn
one down and feel 
the sensi relieve all 
the pain now close
your eyes let the 
song play

The World Today

Is this all life has to offer 
I always thought that there 
might be an issue with me
but this world is ass backwards 
I don't understand the yolo 
what happened to family values 
are we all suppose to be a brainless 
boner my muscles aren't bigger 
then my IQ and I treat everyone with 
respect as long as they deserve it
I feel my generation is the last with 
any morals this is why this world 
is going straight to hell

The Plot of the Sick Life Movie

recap from my chest 
reopened from your cold
attack the memories hurt 
the worst scars left on my
brain it just seems to rain
nothing but horrible failure
on the one who plays me 
in this sick life movie and 
the harsh reality of together
forever means for now 
the lights dim and cut!

November 9th

A bittersweet day for me 
it's a day of celebration but
lacks one thing ever since my
15th birthday their was only 
one voice I wanted to hear 
giving me wishes I hoped
maybe in a dream you would speak
to me,but you weren't there 
my birthday has never been 
the same since you died dad
I'm 24 today i hope you would 
be proud of your son

When Fate Decides

When fate decides to bring you love
you have to embrace it hold on to it
tight because true love is only a once
in a life-time chance fate chose this 
day for me to be happily ever-after 
knowing this gives me the strength 
to look forward to tomorrow seems 
the sun and moon now shine brighter 
because of this love we share I'm
so glad fate finally decided to bring 
me you

Black Cloud

My black clouded sky
won't clear from mistakes
of years past this thunder
storm pained loneliness
of self tragedy thickens 
and will you come back 
this question left unanswered 
so maybe you weren't meant
to clear my skies

No Hero Left

I want to feel something.
I wanted to be moved by anything,
I need a reason to change, I'm stuck
in my past you won't let me move
forward, There's no more fire behind
this hazel eyes. There's only a sad story
to tell, I've known both spectrums of life
the highest of highs but live in the lowest
of lows, I've became a dark evil version 
of my superhero, retired by my loss of hope
my heart still remains black and cold
