I'm on a journey like I just left Pallet Town
Young Ash Ketchum, snapback flipped around
Cause I'm ready to battle anyone in my path'll
Get hydro pumped and fire blasted
You are just trainer, me I am the master
My flow is so elite four, like gate badges
They say the beauty pageant, but if it ever was
It's safe to say that I've already won
See I've already done everything that you doing
I've already thought every thought that is brewing inside your little brain
Thoughts of mixtape names
Which one should you choose, stop just watch me
I can show you how to take your dreams and catch 'em all
No nets, no traps, no master balls
I could show you how to rule the world with one flow
But first I just wanna make sure you know that

You're not like me, I'm not like you
You probably hate me, I probably hate you too
You don't know me and I don't know you but
If I were you I'd probably hate me too

Fresh from uh Professor Oak's house, I just got my fuckin' starter
I just fuckin' whooped Gary's dumb ass

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.
