Going mono seems legit, but let me throw in another way:
If I counted correctly, you have 21 sources of Scry in here. 13 of them are small numbers on instants or sorceries. The remaining 9 are more or less repeatedable effects on permanents. My suggestions is to cut most of the one-shot scry effects. Valid exceptions are interaction spells that aren't overcosted (looking at Sea God's Revenge). You'll propably end up somewhere slightly below 100 cards that way. Fill that up with more repeatable scry effects and you're basically fine.
To end my comment, here are some ideas for repeatable scry effects:
Btw, Call of the Wild exists. Maybe give it a shot?

legendofa: Good catches..
I have been meaning to replace Seer's Lantern with the new Pauper-legal(izing) printing of Unstable Obelisk.
However, I was unaware of, or forgot about the Goblin Firebomb. What do you think I should trade-out for it?

In case you want to play Sphere of True Seeing, Soothsaying is very close, though I do realize that it's ability is worse than scrying.
Regarding OG Crystal Ball, it might be a good card, but I feel like the opportunity cost is quite high with it. Sure, Scry 2 is powerful, and in some decks, like Eligeth, Crossroads Augur, it is straight up obscene. But for the most part, it is a three-drop that smoothes out your draws. That's fine, and I'd usually want such a card in most decks, but I wouldn't want too many cards that do just that and nothing else. Seer's Lantern for example is a similar card for that only scrys for one, but also doubles as a mana rock. I'd prefer this in many cases when I'm not hellbent for the scry 2.
Am I underestimating scry 2? I'm always open for new knowledge.

Thank you both very much for you input! I went to my local card shop and made a few more changes to my deck. I had Neoform already, and took it out cause I didn't think it would gel, I appreciate you pointing that out to me.
These are all the changes I made:
Glimpse of Freedom ---> Brainstorm
Armory of Iroas ---> Solemn Simulacrum
Gruul Guildgate ---> Cragcrown Pathway Flip
Khalni Garden ---> Riverglide Pathway Flip
Rugged Highlands ---> Barkchannel Pathway Flip
Hamletback Goliath ---> Mana Reflection
Temple of the False God ---> Glasspool Mimic Flip
Seer's Lantern ---> Kodama's Reach
Wall of Runes ---> Llanowar Elves
Neoform ---> Burnished Hart
Replacing Burnished Hart is more so because it's a very curvy holo that sticks out in my deck too much, and drives me crazy lol.

You could add cards that you can scry with to bury uncastable things at the top of your library
Mystic Speculation would be a good one since it's repeatable with buyback and adds counters to the bone wand or the reservoir. Or simple straightforward scry card like Crystal Ball
Also, there are various other artifacts to do it with too: Sunset Pyramid, Treasure Map Flip, Seer's Lantern, and Mazemind Tome.
Or scry with legs like Contraband Kingpin, Sigiled Starfish, and Watchful Automaton.
Finally, there are a couple of Jaces; Jace, Mirror Mage or Jace, Unraveler of Secrets.

griffstick- I do like the idea of Blight Sickle. I'll see what I can cut. I'll have to think about Seer's Lantern. As I'm mono-white I can't scoff at any card selection but its also a 3 cmc rock that I can pay 2 to scry which feels super bad.
SirQuixano- Thank you for the many suggestions. Pacifism is a strong maybe, I don't like the idea of only getting rid of an attacker/blocker. A lot of the time I want to get rid of a creature because of a passive or activated ability. But getting rid of an annoying blocker is also something this deck wants to do.
I am good on ramp for the most part. I already have Mind Stone and Everflowing Chalice is too slow. Most of the time I would play it with 1 counter because next turn I want to play Danitha Capashen, Paragon and the turn after play and equip many equipments, and there Arcane Signet is just better. The only rocks I have are ones that I can cash in for a card later in the game when I don't need the mana. Orazca Relic, Bonder's Ornament, and Magnifying Glass are therefor viable but their draw is all very expensive. I think ill add Bonder's Ornament because it is a repeated draw and also creates colored mana. Magnifying Glass is 6 mana to draw a card and only creates colorless mana. Orazca Relic is interesting but is cmc 3 and is only 1 time draw with cities blessing and only creates colorless mana.
As for the fetches, first off, things like Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse would be better but I also really dont want the slow mana. I had Scaretiller in at one point but by the time I had cast it and it started to ramp me I did not need the ramp anymore. Radiant Fountain is probably not necessary because my commander has liflink so my life total is not much of a problem. I was considering Quicksand while building the deck and am on the fence about it.
