Rules Lyrics by Dave East, Buda & Grandz, DJ Drama

Book of David (Deluxe)

2022

[Verse 1: Dave East]
Live by it die by it
Rule number one
Never shit where you eat at (Never)
Rule number two
Keep it private don't let them see that
Shooter they was really on our nuts
Hard to believe that (Hard)
Yo Buda I don't really give a fuck about no feedback (I don’t)
Rule number three
Don't talk filthy it ain't on WhatsApp
Sick of niggas screaming Marathon (Nah)
They ain't ran one lap
Rule number four
Don't have them asking
Where your gun at (Nah)
Rule number five
It ain't pressure that you don't want that (I’ll pass)
Rule numbеr six
Keep the family and all the kids straight (All)
Rule numbеr seven
Keep your distance from niggas that did hate (Remember)
Rule number eight
Come with the flow like 50 that made Ja Rule wait (Uh)
Nobody yelling all over this shit
This ain’t no Clue tape (Clue)
Rule number nine
If in Miami
We eat at Prime (prime)
Them niggas ain't put in no pain with you
Ain’t owned a dime (Nothing)
The nigga that created the Rolex don't know this time (nah)
Rule number ten
Shine on these niggas till they go blind (shine)
[Chorus: Dave East]
Biggie had commandments
I got rules (Let’s go)
Pay attention
Show you how to move (Move)
Ain't nothing you can do to ever get me out this mood (Nothing)
It's hard to stop a nigga that’s determined not to lose (Hard)
Decided not to snooze
Now we pop a lot of Veuve (Clicquot)
Keep the grass cut
Keep the snakes about this loop (Gone)
Me plus two bad bitches out this Coupe look like a group
Like how you gonna blame us
Getting this paper is all we know
(All we knew)
[Verse 2: Dave East]
Rule number eleven
Before chain go get a weapon (Get one)
Rule number twelve
Before you buy learn how to sell (Sell)
We don't come from wishing
Throwing no pennies in no well (Nah)
Now we come from wreaking cognac cause that Henry got a smell
Rule number thirteen
Make sure your shirt clean
I learned that from my grandma
On them Sundays doing our church thing (Mama)
Rule number fourteen
Always avoid the court scene (Always)
Got water on your neck
But you dirty go get some chlorine (Uh)
Rule number fifteen
Can't believe what a bitch seen (Nah)
Rule number sixteen
Can't play both sides we gotta pick teams (Pick up)
Rule seventeen
Come out with some shit that they never seen
Rule eighteen
Nineteen
And twenty
They might never read (Shine)
[Chorus: Dave East]
Biggie had commandments
I got rules (Let’s go)
Pay attention
Show you how to move (Move)
Ain't nothing you can do to ever get me out this mood (Nothing)
It's hard to stop a nigga that’s determined not to lose (Hard)
Decided not to snooze
Now we pop a lot of Veuve (Clicquot)
Keep the grass cut
Keep the snakes about this loop (Buda)
Me plus two bad bitches out this Coupe look like a group
Like how you gonna blame us
Getting this paper is all we know
(All we knew)
