#ThrowbackThursday Verse of the Week:
“I been in this game for years, it made me an animal
It’s rules to this shit, I wrote me a manual
A step by step booklet for you to get
your game on track, not your wig pushed back
Rule nĂºmero uno: never let no one know
how much, dough you hold, cause you know
That cheddar breed jealousy ‘specially
if that man fucked up, get your ass stuck up
Number two: never let em know your next move
Don’t you know Bad Boys move in silence and violence
Take it from your highness (uh-huh)
I done squeezed mad clips at these cats for they
bricks and chips
Number three: never trust nobody
Your moms will set that ass up, properly gassed up
Hoodie to masked up, for that fast buck
she’ll be layin in the bushes to light that ass up
Number four: know you heard this before
Never get high, on your own supply
Number five: never sell no crack where you rest at
I don’t care if they want an ounce, tell em bounce
Number six: that goddamn credit, dead it
You think a crackhead payin you back, shit forget it
Seven: this rule is so underrated
Keep your family and business completely separated
Money and blood don’t mix like two dicks and no bitch
Find yourself in serious shit
Number eight: never keep no weight on you
Them cats that squeeze your guns can hold jobs too
Number nine shoulda been number one to me
If you ain’t gettin bags stay the fuck from police
If niggas think you snitchin they ain’t tryin listen
They’ll be sittin in your kitchen, waitin to start hittin
Number ten: a strong word called consignment
Strictly for live men, not for freshmen
If you ain’t got the clientele say hell no
Cuz they gon want they money rain, sleet, hail, snow
Follow these rules you’ll have mad bread to break up
If not, twenty-four years, on the wake up
Slug hit your temple, watch your frame shake up
Caretaker did your makeup, when you pass
Your girl fucked my man Jacob, heard in three weeks
she sniffed a whole half of cake up
Heard she suck a good dick and can hook a steak up
Gotta go, gotta go, more pies bake up, word up.”
-The Notorious B.I.G., “Ten Crack Commandments” 1997
