[Intro]
"Apparently when he was getting his hay…
And he was getting it, I suppose, where he shouldn’t be getting it maybe…
But uh… he heard a banshee…
And he dropped everything and ran home and he was as white as a sheet and he was frightened of the light and he got an awful fright, but like…
And somebody in the area… somebody be known to him had died…
Upon the night never has it so happened. Now, Believe it or not, it could be anything…"

[Hook]
What it is
What it is
I say the word and it's over
Fuck what they told ya
What it is
What it is
The best in the world
Don't care what you heard bitch
What it is
What it is
Fuck is the problem
Got em we solve em
I'm the resolver
Show up end all em
Mind fadin off so I gotta get rollin

[Verse]
Motions fluid like oceans
Got em' out wonderin' what's the commotion
Look all they see a corpse is smokin'
Til I turn BONES and show them who own it
How does he pick up the world and just mold it
Almost as of it ain't nothin' to hold it
Shit, now I want it
But she can't have it
Shit is too fragile
No one can hold it but me and I'm glad too
Sittin' in the backyard smokin' new dope
While you wonder why your work don't work
You can work til it hurt then they lower you in dirt
Then I kill your whole discog, just one verse
People hate fakes so the people hate you
The word got out now your friends hate too
Water level risin', only thing you can do
Let your lungs fill with the fluid, yes

[Hook]
What it is
What it is
I say the word and it's over
Fuck what they told ya
What it is
What it is
The best in the world
Don't care what you heard bitch
What it is
What it is
Fuck is the problem
Got em we solve em
I'm the resolver
Show up end all em
Mind fadin off so I gotta get rollin

Elmo Kennedy O'Connor (b. January 11th, 1994), popularly known as BONES (formerly Th@ Kid), is an underground rapper from Muir Beach, CA. He is one of the four members of the “Seshollowaterboyz” and has actively released music under several other aliases, such as surrenderdorthy, OREGONTRAIL, and Ricky A Go-Go.

During his childhood, he and his family moved to the small town of Howell, Michigan where he attended school. Eventually, he dropped out at the age of 16 to pursue rap music. His brother, Elliot O'Connor, now Bones' manager, suggested Elmo come live with him in Los Angeles, California. There, he recorded most of his mixtapes and eventually met Xavier Wulf, Chris Travis, and Eddy Baker, people he eventually toured and performed with under their collective name SeshHollowWaterboyz (SHWB). He is of Irish ancestry and also the grandson of actor Robert Culp.

He’s known for his “emo rap” style of music, which is labeled as strictly his own, as well as the rapid rate he releases music (including 100 music videos and over 50 mixtapes), his resistance to joining major record labels, and charging money for his music, despite major interest by many.
