[Intro]
"I'm very well, indeed."
"I think this could be a real masterpiece. This whole record"
"This really, it could be a masterpiece."
"I know it's great, wouldn't it... wouldn't it be great if it hooked in?"
"Easier to rate means that you have a tape now?"
"Yeah they, they, they, they know... there's no playin' around now, okay? No naps, you understand, right? It costs to be in... ground... ground."
"That was great."
"So they won't believe your own death you'll be immortal... (mhmm) go on forever."
"That'd be great." (mhmm)

[Verse]
What?
Sharpen the number 2, rip out some college rule paper
And take down these lessons (lessons)
Eyes on the board if you feel that you're bored and you
Ask me to leave, no I won't let you
I let you in on my mental and I let you
Witness me conduct the lecture (lecture)
You know too much but you truly know little
About this big planet where you have been living
Ash in your brain, must've huffed them away
I knew too many people like you in the day
Day meaning past, and night meaning future
Darkness fall quick but I will never lose you
Up on the hill where I watch
Look down on the place that you call your spot
Up on the hill where I watch
Look down on the place that you call your spot

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.
