"2010 - Mr. October (TSU Surf Remix)" lyrics
(feat. TSU Surf)
[Wyclef Jean:]
Look
You speak English, right? That's common sense
Me, I had to learn how to speak English for self-defense
Growin' in the bricks, your boy learned a battle rap
The more my punch connected
The less I had to scrap, and that's real rap
Before Tame was the Artifacts
Before Ras Baraka was the mayor, we was on the Ave
You know what Zoe means
Bone shipped Napoleon back his army in skeleton form
We ain't worthless, Louisiana helped with the purchase
I've been gettin' y'all that Cash Money like the Birdman
My young boys got MBAs, where education don't pay
So they join a gang, set up a toll like the Parkway
Could have been me, deportee, G-O-D save the kid
Every beautiful picture come with a negative
When I said, "Free Surf" at the MTV Awards
This is what reform look like when you come from Newark
Things that I've seen in my life made me question God
Like why the devil up tell me who runnin' the scoreboard
Needles in a ring look like vitamins in an IV
Ray Charles, high she could feel, she don't need to see
Our whole city built on bricks
All we sell is rock and roll
And when the snow fall, leave the earth in a Rolls-Royce
I see my whole high school turn a Cooley High
I'm out to wake like, "It's so hard to say goodbye"
Envision a new acquisition, you can go from drug dealin' to a corporation
Cookin' in the kitchen to a board meetin'
Flip the hustle, now it's world domination
200K a week I used to spend on Jacob
200K a week and now I'm buyin' acres
Reggie Jackson, Mr. October
Once I read the liners, I'm takin' over
[TSU Surf:]
Christmas came, my mama held it down, it wasn't Santa
My daughter asked me when I'm comin' home, I couldn't answer
I told my dog that I'm gonna get us out, but he keep steppin'
I told little bro we can't buy nothin' with just street credit
Watch your circle, it be your friends
Bloodstain on wheat Timbs
Pray that God understand it, it was either me or them
Daddy left, I hit the block, hood shit around cycles
I just talked to cuz, he lost his freedom, but he found his Bibles
Just tryin' to stay alive every day we make it count
We're chasin' niggas down, but now it's just Chase accounts
Lana good, don't want for shit nothin' I could frown about
Lawyer cost a hundred racks could have bought my moms a house
Still pull up, trenches is just foreign things
The letter boys tryin' to destroy the team
It was nightmares before the dreams
And we had Chrome Hearts before the jeans
We had Chrome Hearts before the—
[Wyclef Jean:]
Envision a new acquisition
Success the best vengeance for the opposition
Cookin' in the kitchen, boardroom meetings
Flippin' the hustle, world domination
Ten Ms on your boy's wrist
Pinky ring looks like Knicks 2026
100K to 10x Coinbase wallet
Real estate out in space, that's my next purchase
Look
You speak English, right? That's common sense
Me, I had to learn how to speak English for self-defense
Growin' in the bricks, your boy learned a battle rap
The more my punch connected
The less I had to scrap, and that's real rap
