Previously, we created the 10 Hotep Commandments which will help restore a code of ethics within the black community. Thanks to our friend Rado, we now have the HipHop version of our code.
Lyrics:
Ten Hotep commandments, what?
Nigga can’t tell me nothing about this black lives matter
Can’t tell me nothing about saving my people the right way
Niggas on the corner I ain’t forget you niggas
We been slaves for years, it made us some animals
The laws that they set are just to here to challenge us
A step-by-step booklet for you to get
Your game on track, not your wig pushed back
Rule number 1 be self sufficient my son independent person never needing no one
The word breed jealousy ‘specially
Since the laws fucked up get yo’ ass stuck up
Number 2 don’t be the one to make a excuse a mind like that wont be profitable for you
Take it from your sensei comprende dont push aside what u can do today
Number 3 you gotta be aware what u eat gotta to eat to live instead of living to eat
Fast food ell have u gased up shit, for that cheap buck food be lighting that ass up
Number 4, I know you heard this before be completely and totally presented to whats going on
Number 5, you gotta explore ya soul rid it of the demons and get some self control
Number 6 gotta be a speaker of joy be short with tongue not one thats making some nosie
7, this rule is so underrated
If we all follow it we can avoid some situations
Gotta be a speaker of truth and not the lies to avoid the evil and prevent ur demise
Number 8, never disrespect the youth
Gotta be servants too em and the elderly too
Number 9 shoulda been Number 1 to me,
Gotta be a servant to ur community
If u get cats to listen have em bear n wittnes’ They be changing they ways and findin some tradition’
Number 10, master law and finance
Stengthen ur mind man dont get left man
If you ain’t got the answer Sway say “hell no!”
‘Cause they gon’ want they knowledge rain sleet hail snow
Follow these rules 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
World Star put the tape up
heard in three weeks
Another tape came up
Heard they feeding they minds plz pray that they wake up
Gotta go gotta go, more thoughts to bake up, word up
