Born May 4, 1986, in Torrance, California, youngest of four children to writer, Charles Gentry and child care provider, Sharon Gentry, Lynn Gentry began writing at the age of 12 and playing music in high school. After forming his first band The Night After, Gentry began to seriously study music which has brought him to San Francisco.
Lynn has been described as, "one of the richest and most distinctively smooth voices I've ever heard - his voice is like a layer of melted butter spread over his songs, all smooth and warm. Lynn writes with a lot of imagery of emotion and when he sings his stuff and he gets that low vibrato going, what can I say, its like butter".-JJ Schultz

!my hall mark comment card! - i normally go more free verse style these days, fools. i dont schemme so much with my rhymne, it can become unbelievable.
naked
i lay my immediacy and troubles out to be known, is this stripping my defenses to the bone? now where one may question "is this over reaction", or if he could ever really find a home.
for i assure some who have read, might make effort to have said, anything more degrading they could, instead of the good they should.
we all have been naked before seems at some of the times fragile to the core.
yet the beauty of truth can be accepted and strong, as it is true, we can all belong.
.stolen stone (hope from its pain). a jewel easily shines in ecstacy too, ya know, but depression soaked apathy contempts a happy truth of a step off of power now punished to no reason choking on what shouldn't even have to be written and I am alone so torn from a plea of love, the only word I bothered to purposely repeat tonight cause I forgot of hope, it was an accident stolen -jairid (poem included in "where I stand")
love is a form it calls to all, for the essence of panic is chaos of no desirable trait except wished upon thy enemy. So as i do much more than stumble through this persistant, pathetic, chaos laden frustration, I hear the call. love is in my head, love is in my very being, and i know to strut on. i laugh about 'staying alive', for I now know I will always be.
THIS IS THE REALEST SHIT OUT HERE...PAT'S JUSTICE NEW VIDEO FOR 'INNOCENT CRIMINAL ANTHEM" ALBUM AVAILABLE THIS WINTER ON ITUNES!!!!!!!WITNESS HIS STORY IN THE MAKING!!
