[Verse 1]
If you were to tell me I'd be at where I'm at now
Back in Howell, I'd had said, "You in denial now"
It's like a fallen star fell into my hands
Almost got El a Bentley but he said he like the Benz now
Lookin' all around at my team, ain't no friends
Just brothers, for my blood, I would take one to the head
It's the lord of the dead, it's the prince of the tomb (Tomb)
Pimp named Bones, butterfly be the tool (What?)
Cristal poppin', smokin' dope in the pool (Pool)
Ain't familiar with the game? You can read it on the jewels
I love the road but it's nice bein' home
The fruits of my labor on the line, hold the phone

[Chorus]
Weapon in the back (Back), steppin' to the front (Front)
Money on my mind, I'ma do just what I want (Want)
Bitch you gettin' packed (Packed), fuckin' with the skeleton
Get your man sent to hell, fold 'em like I'm mailin' 'em
Weapon in the back (Back), steppin' to the front (Front)
Money on my mind, I'ma do just what I want (Want)
Bitch you gettin' packed (Packed), fuckin' with the skeleton
Get your man sent to hell, fold 'em like I'm mailin' 'em (Who is that?)

[Verse 2]
Creepin' out the door, a quick reminder, gotta knock him out
Diamonds iridescent, neck and wrist lookin' like a waterfall
Soldiers at my beck and call, Bones never fled at all
Better tread lightly, road is icy, you might slip and fall
Who you think you foolin'? We coolin', pop up and X 'em out
You not even a blip on my radar, you're late, now cut it out
Hunker down, buckle up, I'ma take you on a ride
Hundred days, hundred nights, see you make it out alive
BeanNighe, waitin' in the riverbed (Bed)
Thinkin' back on life, shit was so simple then
Then again, I ain't have much to live for (For)
The day I died, I found out what I was here for

[Chorus]
Weapon in the back (Back), steppin' to the front (Front)
Money on my mind, I'ma do just what I want (Want)
Bitch you gettin' packed (Packed), fuckin' with the skeleton
Get your man sent to hell, fold 'em like I'm mailin' 'em
Weapon in the back (Back), steppin' to the front (Front)
Money on my mind, I'ma do just what I want (Want)
Bitch you gettin' packed (Packed), fuckin' with the skeleton
Get your man sent to hell, fold 'em like I'm mailin' 'em

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.
