In October 2006 Hard Target toured with Universal Records signed artist Marpo, in Czech Republic. His song "Im Over It" was used on the movie soundtrack for a foreign film called "TSOT" www.tsot.fi. which was produced by www.helsinkifilmi.fi. Also his music has been featured on multiple Skateboarding, Aggro-Shake, and Surf Videos.

You cant classify this kids style, its up-beat one minute, and then the next minute he's making you think. He's HIM...just a kid with a dream and heart for music. You name the style, he's done it, but thats where his conflict comes into play. He's not mainstream enough, and not underground enough, so its like with whatever he does...its not accepted.
So he would like to brake it down very simple for all you new listeners or dis-likers of his music..."You dont like my music, or what I say...O THE FUCK WELL!! Either listen to it for what it is...Or turn it off...good-day"
Hard Target is Hard Target, nothing more, nothing less.

This One's For Me
Hard Target Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't name one thing that I wouldn't have done
There is not a person on this earth I didn't put you above
And could it be love, is a subject I shouldn't have touched
While seeing people with these problems think it be us
But then love chimes in, starts getting involved
Think your the same person 'til you see how different you are
And when the light disappears and you sit in the dark
And all the simple things, you made complicated as fuck
And you didn't even bother to call and say that were done
Now I kind of realize that it's better this way
I'll step back, and give you your space
Bridge 1
I've given you all I,
(I gave you all I had to give)
I've had to give
(And everything that I gave you took)
I figured it all out
(I'll walk away with almost nothing at all)
What I've had to miss
(And I'm just laughing at how long it took)
And I'm feeling like my thoughts
(They never meant a damn thing to you)
Have been set to the side
(But this time I got a point to prove)
I'm sick and tired of all the chances I've let slide
(Everytime when I look at your face, I just think, how happy I am)
Chorus
'Cause this ones for me
So let's toast to the times we missed,
And all the time that we gave away
This ones for me
Lets toast baby I'm convinced,
It's better off if it ends this way
This ones for me
I'm sick and tired of just holding it back
When there's so much I need to say
This ones for me
This ones for me
This ones for me
Verse 2
This drink heres meant for you
But this one heres meant for me
And this bottle back here well it's meant for
Ehhh we'll just see
A lot of things change in my life since you left me girl
And I can't front it's been so good
The only thing I regret with the time we spent
Is damn, how long it took
A few things on my mind babygirl I like to tell you now
You were an anchor on the boat that just held me down
And you can save the sad story you gon sell me now
Cause the bond we had is gone, I've done bailed out
I've got new things starting, no more mood swings darling
No more, me me me, now that you aint calling
I got a bottle full of sunshine, I'm drinking it straight
I'd love to pour you a glass but you'd hate the taste
Chorus
'Cause this ones for me
So let's toast to the times we missed,
And all the time that we gave away
This ones for me
Let us toast baby I'm convinced
It's better off if it ends this way
This ones for me
I'm sick and tired of just holding it back,
When there's so much I need to say
This ones for me
This ones for me
This ones for me
Verse 3
See I don't mean to rub it in ya face or none of that
(Laugh) yeah I do
I'm just here to let you know that I'm done with that,
I'm heading one direction, I promise I'm never coming back
I gave you everything I had including pride,
And everything I had inside,
I'm just trying to leave with something intact
Whether you like it, I know we need to go seperate ways
But there is been something on my mind that I meant to say
Bridge 2
I've given you all I,
(Every bit of it)
I've had to give
(You know what? You can have it)
I figured it all out
(I figured that shit out too)
What I've had to miss
(Its all about you, aint it?)
And I'm feeling like my thoughts
(I know)
Have been set to the side
(Over there, right?)
I'm sick and tired of all the chances I've let slide
(Not tonight tho, this ones for me)
Chorus
'Cause this ones for me
So lets toast to the times we missed
And all the time that we gave away
This ones for me
Lets toast baby I'm convinced,
It's better off if it ends this way
This ones for me
I'm sick and tired of just holding it back
When there's so much I need to say
This ones for me
This ones for me
This ones for me
In this song, the artist expresses his realization that even though he thought he was in love and put his significant other above everything, he realizes that their relationship is not worth holding onto anymore. The artist reveals that love revealed the differences between them, which he did not quite see before. He lets go of the complicated things in the relationship and gives his partner space. The artist reflects on the time they spent together and the missed opportunities, but he realizes that it is better if they go their separate ways. He adds that he has new beginnings and is drinking up the sunshine, something his partner would never have appreciated.
In the bridge, the artist explains that he has given his all to the relationship, given everything he had both materialistically and emotionally, but he still feels like it was all for nothing. He is sick and tired of being the one who always gave the chances to make their relationship work but gets nothing in return. However, in the end, the artist reminds himself that this song is for him, so he raises a toast to that, revealing that he is letting go and moving on.

Can't name one thing that I wouldn't have done
There isn't anything I wouldn't have done for you
There is not a person on this earth I didn't put you above
I prioritized you over everyone else
And could it be love, is a subject I shouldn't have touched
Maybe I shouldn't have fallen in love with you
While seeing people with these problems think it be us
Others might assume that we have similar problems
Think your the same person 'til you see how different you are
I thought you were the same person until I realized how different you are
And when the light disappears and you sit in the dark
When the good times are gone and only the bad remain
You sit and think about it, really you don't miss him at all
You think about your relationship and realize you don't miss me at all
And all the simple things, you made complicated as fuck
You made simple things unnecessarily difficult
And you didn't even bother to call and say that were done
You didn't even bother to tell me that it was over
Now I kind of realize that it's better this way
I now see that it is better for us to be apart
I'll step back, and give you your space
I will distance myself and let you be
I've given you all I,
I've given you everything
(I gave you all I had to give)
(I gave you everything I had)
And everything that I gave you took
You took everything I gave you
I figured it all out
I understand it all now
(I'll walk away with almost nothing at all)
(I am leaving with very little)
What I've had to miss
What I lost because of you
(And I'm just laughing at how long it took)
(And I'm laughing at how it took so long)
And I'm feeling like my thoughts
I feel like my thoughts
(They never meant a damn thing to you)
(You never cared about them)
Have been set to the side
You ignored my thoughts
(But this time I got a point to prove)
(But this time, I have something to prove)
I'm sick and tired of all the chances I've let slide
I'm done with giving you chances
(Everytime when I look at your face, I just think, how happy I am)
(Every time I see your face, I am reminded of how happy I am without you)
'Cause this ones for me
This is for my benefit
So let's toast to the times we missed,
Let's celebrate the good times we missed
And all the time that we gave away
All the time we lost by being together
Lets toast baby I'm convinced,
Let's celebrate because I am sure
It's better off if it ends this way
It is better that we end things
I'm sick and tired of just holding it back
I am tired of holding back my thoughts and feelings
When there's so much I need to say
There is so much I want to express
This drink heres meant for you
This drink is for you
But this one heres meant for me
But this one is for me
And this bottle back here well it's meant for
And this bottle here, we'll see who it's for
Ehhh we'll just see
We'll find out eventually
A lot of things change in my life since you left me girl
My life has changed significantly since you left me
And I can't front it's been so good
I can't deny that it's been amazing
The only thing I regret with the time we spent
The only thing I regret about our time together
Is damn, how long it took
Is that it took too long
A few things on my mind babygirl I like to tell you now
There are a few things I need to tell you
You were an anchor on the boat that just held me down
You were weighing me down like an anchor on a boat
And you can save the sad story you gon sell me now
You don't have to tell me a sob story, I don't want to hear it
Cause the bond we had is gone, I've done bailed out
Our connection is broken and I've moved on
I've got new things starting, no more mood swings darling
I am starting over and won't be moody anymore
No more, me me me, now that you aint calling
I won't be selfish anymore, now that you're not calling
I got a bottle full of sunshine, I'm drinking it straight
I'm enjoying life and drinking straight from a bottle of happiness
I'd love to pour you a glass but you'd hate the taste
I wish I could share my happiness with you, but you wouldn't appreciate it
See I don't mean to rub it in ya face or none of that
I don't want to offend you, but...
(Laugh) yeah I do
(Actually, I do)
I'm just here to let you know that I'm done with that,
I'm just letting you know that I'm finished with our relationship
I'm heading one direction, I promise I'm never coming back
I'm moving forward and won't be coming back
I gave you everything I had including pride,
I gave you everything, including my pride
And everything I had inside,
I gave you everything I had inside
I'm just trying to leave with something intact
I want to leave with something left of me
Whether you like it, I know we need to go seperate ways
Whether you like it or not, we have to part ways
But there is been something on my mind that I meant to say
There is something on my mind that I need to say
(Every bit of it)
(All of it)
(You know what? You can have it)
(Actually, you can keep it)
(I figured that shit out too)
(I figured that out as well)
(Its all about you, aint it?)
(It's always been about you, hasn't it?)
(Over there, right?)
(Off to the side, where it belongs?)
I'm done with giving you chances
I'm finished with giving you second chances
(Not tonight tho, this ones for me)
(But not tonight, tonight is for me)
