[Verse]
Still will kill, bitch, cuz I don't speak for real
Keep it quiet you would never see it coming till you feel
Buck knife to your spine, run it quickly to the sky
Open you just like a letter, let me read just what's inside
Like its mail time, mail time, hit the Alpine
Now we bumpin', smokin' blunts, get to it like its bout time
In and out of route, time pit stop to count mine
I need every decimal essential for this ounce I'm bankin' on
Cashin' off, you show out, I laugh it off, you go out, I stay at home
Still your funds is lookin' low, I ain't one to give a fuck about a couple dollars
But I know you are so tell me how the fuck you plan to pile up
If you wilder than the wildest that would be me lets be honest
So just take your 2nd rank and take your silver to get polished
Shadow box it make it gorgeous, put it on the wall to worship
Only thing I frame is progress for me, that's a perfect portrait
Everybody dressing up and doing all their best impressions
Oh, so many Bones imitations, I'ma start a convention
All your shows look like dashcon stage, like a ball pit
Under developed brain somehow stuck inside some tall kids
Fuck about your talking and your posting, keep it going
It's final cut the way, they over saturate their own shit
If they wanna know you you just one click away
If they wanna get to Bones, that's just something they'll have to dream

[Hook]
Got some woods in the duffel
Got some blades just to touch em
They got money that's lovely
Cuz I got shit I been wantin'
Got some woods in the duffel
Got some blades just to touch em
They got money that's lovely
Cuz I got shit I been wantin'
Got some woods in the duffel
Got some blades just to touch em
You got money? That's lovely
Cuz I got shit I been wantin'

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.
