Okay, But This Is the Last Time
BONES
Defiance and Individuality: The Essence of BONES' Anthem
BONES' song "Okay, But This Is the Last Time" is a raw and unfiltered expression of defiance and individuality. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who is tired of the constant complaints and lack of action from others. The opening lines, "Sitting in the motherfucking dirt just hurt / Always bitching about you never get the shit that you deserve," set the tone for the song, highlighting the frustration with people who lament their circumstances but do nothing to change them. BONES contrasts this with his own proactive approach, stating, "While you rotting on the curb, I'ma take off with the birds / Waiting for the right time but for me now works," emphasizing his readiness to seize opportunities and rise above the mediocrity around him.
The song delves deeper into themes of authenticity and originality. BONES criticizes those who try to imitate his style, asserting that they can never truly replicate his unique flow and creativity. Lines like "They watch then repeat through their own shit / But they'll never duplicate the flow bitch" underscore his disdain for copycats and his pride in his originality. This sentiment is further reinforced with the declaration, "If it ain't sesh then you know I don't know it / If it ain't our show there ain't no point in going," showing his loyalty to his crew and his belief in their unparalleled talent.
Throughout the song, BONES also touches on the idea of self-awareness and the recognition of one's own worth. He acknowledges his own impact and influence, stating, "I am what they not / They land in the rocks / I'm a motherfucking problem, oh." This self-assuredness is a recurring theme in his music, where he often positions himself as a trailblazer and a force to be reckoned with. The closing lines, "I aim for the brush but I landed on the top / This a good little spot I know," encapsulate his journey and success, highlighting his ability to surpass expectations and find his place at the top.
