[Verse]
Creeping up from behind
Money up on my mind
Butterfly on my side
Make it fly then you die
I've got lies in my eyes
All my times' been reprised
Compromised with my lies
Now I'm stuck inside my mind
Resurrect everytime I die
Crash and survive everytime I ride
Cash sight eyes with a blunt I fly
On my broomstick, high up in the sky
Levitate down 'til my feet feel ground
I don't give a fuck how you feel now
Never gave a fuck how we felt then
But now we on and now you want it now
Rolling with the roof blown off
Stolen when the blade get drawn
Hold it, do you really wanna live?
Do you really wanna die?
Do you really wanna try me?
Show me, tell me, throw me, roll me
Body made of drugs, might as well just smoke me
Hold me closely, put me away
Acting like a killer but you just so safe

[Chorus]
That's just how it is
That's just how it is, I said that's just how it is
That's just how it is, I said that's just how it is
That's just how it is, I said that's just how it is

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.
