    As a veteran from the 82nd airborne. I can remember clearly being pulled into a hovel 6 miles outside of Baghdad. Took 4 rounds to my legs and was saved by an Afghan family whom I now haven't heard from in 14 months. This song touches my soul.

I am currently getting therapy for PTSD and I am trying a thing called Transcranial Magnetic Therapy. Give it a try man. I have tried all the meds without results, but this Transcranial stuff seems to be helping me. Hell I even found myself being happy a couple of times. Maybe it will work for you. God Bless and keep on keeping on.

      I am so very very sorry for your loss!! Music has gotten me through the last 6 months since my mom, 64, unexpectedly fell and hit her head in our home and there was nothing we could do to save her, just tripped and hit back of her head on a ledge. Upchurch reactions got me through yesterday and Tom and above today while doing an activity we’ve always done together for the last 17 years and I wasn’t sure how I’d get through it. Flawd’s streams of music are incredible if you’ve never checked him out. Not sure if you’ve ever listened to Country but if you are spiritual as well TyHerndon is incredible!!

      Addiction is a struggle that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. I watched my little brother struggle with it. It very nearly killed him. He tried to take his own life (and came incredibly close to succeeding) because of the guilt he felt for putting his family through so much pain. He didn't think he was strong enough to fight it. He was fortunate though that he had family who refused to give up on him. He's been clean for over 17 years now. He is truly one of the strongest men I have ever known and I'm so incredibly proud of him.
      I hope you have people who love and support you. But in case nobody has told you this, I'm proud of you. It's not easy but it is definitely worth it. You are worth it. I wish you nothing but the best. God bless you. ❤️

    Wish I could like this a thousand times!! I honestly think this is your best song yet. Seventeen years ago, I sat in the ICU with my baby brother after the doctor told me he wasn't going to pull through this time. It was the 3rd time he had overdosed. I sat in that room for 3 days with him, praying for a miracle. God answered those prayers. He turned his life around completely. Next year, he'll watch his oldest daughter graduate from high school with honors. He'll be there to drop her off at college. She's a Daddy's girl, he is her hero and she will never know how incredibly close she came to losing him. This song will speak to so many people. You are an incredible artist and an inspiration, Tom. ❤️

Tom has so many amazing, well written, and well thought out songs, however “Scars” by far is my favorite. It’s a song, in my opinion, that anyone can listen to and really relate on one level or another. It doesn’t matter where you come from, what walk of life you’ve come from, everyone can relate to this song. Not that you can’t in almost every song of his, but people from all walks of life can listen to this and reflect on their own lives.

Today the wife is not at home anymore, the children are daycare. The man has no reason to be the head of household because there is no household… Just a mutual partnership with a marriage license and lease attached. The man’s wages were cut, the woman’s wages were increased and productivity went down. And now you’re seeing the after effects

      Be strong. Anybody can be. I myself was physically abused by my father every day since I was just nine years old. Having a knife at my throat every day for nearly thirty years (I am now 38) was incredibly hard to bear to say the least. But if you let things get you as much as suicide it just proves you are weak. Just stay strong and keep the faith! *hugs*

And that's why I like Tom, he actually knows what his music does for his fans! It's why he's so genuine and truthful, he holds no punches and just spits facts.

      I understand.. all our stories are different.. each important..
      so many scars.. many emotional from my father, mother, sisters, and brothers health issues growing up, as I had to be a man at 16.. to pay bills... and on into my 30's.. decisions, grief,.. scars from the many physical battles, in service and after.. so many scars from my own health problems, debilitating spine fractures, and all the surgeries after.. the final infection that almost killed me, med flighted into emergency surgery as my organs began shutting down in 2019..
      I remember little of it.. just a cold silence in a black empty void and then a friendly, warm voice asking me if I was ready.. to pass on to what comes after..
      NO... my wife, our children, grown into just adulthood.. I would NOT give up.. I loved them too much to just slip away.. Asking God to let me stay with them... then sleeping again.. only becoming "me",.. awake and aware in ICU rehab a few days later.. covered in surgical scars to go along with all the others.. but recovered, except for all the surgical wounds, my organs all working again..
      What keeps me anchored to life, is the love of those in my life.. and they don't shun me for my scars.. they embrace me anyway.. Tom's music reaches me unlike anyone else does from the current era..
      There is no shame in having scars.. we all have them.. just, some more than others.. each has a story, each is important..
      as is Tom for sharing some of his with us..

This song shows a depth and realness that your haters miss. You aren’t a wannabe of some other rapper, you, sir, are sincerely an inspiration to humankind. Your willingness to expose your scars for the world to see, so that others may benefit from your past pain is highly commendable. On top of all that, your videos and songs bring such a connection that I feel like a friend, though we’ve never met. You and Nova are priceless in todays world!

    I don't have the best home life. I had to grow up early. Got scars inside and out. Been through hell. Got back up after falling and kept going despite who shoved me down or talked crap about me. This one hit me right in the feels. Beautifully done Tom. Another truthful, raw, masterpiece.

I climb 1 stair and get knocked down 10 all my life. So I just started planning for shit to happen. Not of my doing. Im taking about car breaking down, loosing your job loosing your mind kind of shit. So I just plan for it and I never get surprised lol it truly makes it better. Or I will compare n say, well at least it wasn't more money lol. best of luck

      Families are often the cause of the greatest scars in our lives, as those closest to us to us "should" be the most dependable. So when they betray/turn on us, it hurts much worse than if it were a stranger. For those who DO have friends and family you can depend on and trust, well, count your blessings.
