[Verse 1]
Smart-house mansion
Japanese lanterns
Bath house, bathing
When I'm feeling anxious
Gotta be patient, jumping guns dangerous
Boom goes the bass, and it's shaking the paintings
Life is a vacation, fine wine tasting
Never see me change, only re-arranging
Nothing's what I'm claiming
Something's what I'm gaining
Woke from a dream, to a sight so amazing
Studio basement, writing in the attic
Dave in the kitchen, cooking up something lavish
Money in the mattress, gold in the safe
No I never go to banks, cause I don't feel safe
No brand names, young hand me down veins
Wear my father's old watch
With my grandfather's ring
Feel like a king, but I'm looking like a prince
Cause I'm young and I'm gorgeous
The life of a pimp
Rose water tea, fresh honey from the house
Strawberries from the garden
Never shop, never buy
I ain't buying what you selling
You just lying, you a felon
And I'm a nice you fellow when the volume on eleven
Jaguar in the the driveway, the '98 model (Vroom)
Yellow Testarossa when I need the full throttle
Motherfuck a bottle, water in my chalice
Wonderland blunts, with a girl like Alice

[Hook]
Yeah, my feet up in my palace
Everything golden, everything lavish
Living life so lavish (lavish, lavish)(x2)

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.
