[The Notorious B.I.G.]
It's the 10 [bad word] [bad word] can't tell me nothing about this coke
Can't tell me nothing about this crack, this weed
To my hustlin' niggas
Niggas on the corner I ain't forget you niggas!
My triple beam niggas

[The Notorious B.I.G.]
I've been in this game for years, it made me an animal [bad word] to this [bad word]  I wrote me a manual
step-by-step booklet for you to get
Your game on track, not your wig pushed [bad word] Number Uno: never let no one know
How much dough you hold...cause you know
The cheddar breed jealousy 'specially
If that man [bad word] up, get yo' [bad word] stuck up
Number 2: never let 'em know your next move
Don't you know Bad Boys move in silence and violence?
Take it from your highness:
I done squeezed mad clips at these cats for their bricks and chips
Number 3: never [bad word] no-bo-dy
Your moms'll set that [bad word] up, properly gassed up
Hoodied and masked up, [bad word]  for that fast buck
She be laying in the bushes to light that [bad word] up
Number 4: know you heard this before
"Never get high on your own supply"
Number 5: never sell no crack where you rest at
I don't care if they want a ounce, tell em "bounce!"
Number 6: that god [bad word] credit? Dead it
You think a crackhead paying you back, [bad word] forget it!
7: [bad word] is so underrated
Keep your family and [bad word] separated
Money and blood don't mix like 2 [bad word] and no [bad word] Find yourself in serious [bad word] Number 8: never keep no weight on you!
Them cats that squeeze your guns can hold jums too
Number 9 should've been Number 1 to me:
If you ain't gettin' bagged stay the [bad word] from police
If niggas think you snitchin' they ain't trying to listen
They be sittin' in your kitchen, waiting to start hittin'
Number 10: a strong word called "consignment"
Strictly for live men, not for freshmen
If you ain't got the clientele, say  [bad word] no!"
Cause they gon' want they money rain sleet hail snow
Follow [bad word] you'll have mad bread to break up
If not, 24 years on the wake up
Slug hit your temple, watch your frame shake up
Caretaker did your makeup, when you passed
Your girl [bad word] my man Jake up, heard in three weeks
She sniffed a whole half of cake up
Heard she suck a good [bad word]  and can hook a steak up
Gotta go gotta go, more pies to bake up
