Yeah.. now in ninety three

Everybody knows the flav

Fat Joe Da Gangsta yeah

You know my style



Fat Joe a.k.a. Da Fat Gangsta

I'm no joke and I'm far from a prankster

I got skills aiyyo word life

Suckers is scared because they know I live trife

As I troop down the streets of a ghetto

Skins are jockin and always screamin hello

But I keep drivin in my jet black Beamer

I'm not a daydreamer but I'm known as a scheamer

I'm dead-ass, when it comes to this

And if you fuck around, your moms'll reminisce

Thinkin of the good times she spent with her son

Somebody shoulda told you that I wasn't the one

Yes I'm known to get nuff respect

and if you face Fat Joe, well then you face your death

Now in ninety-three, it's time to take a stand

And you know how I'm livin, I'm a bad, bad, man



Niggaz know the flav

"I'm a bad, bad, man!" (cut and scratched 2X)



Check it

All the old folks, hate my guts

Cause I be hittin all they daughters and they big fat butts

Cause I'm the papichulo when it comes to rap

and if you fuck with me, then you leave handicapped

I don't give a fuck, don't care who you are

I gotta say peace to my peeps GangStarr

Some real motherfuckers from around the hood

When I chills with them, we be up to no good

Hittin skins, makin ends

Loungin with my friends in my fat BM

Whether Uptown in the Boogie Down

Or checkin out stunts in the Polo Ground

See just like Mel, I'm internationally known

And I'm mob related, like Al Capone, check it

Too hot to handle, blow you like a candle

You never catch Joe in the middle of a scandal

Now in ninety-three it's time to take the stand

And you know how I'm livin, I'm a bad, bad, man!



Everybody knows the flav

"I'm a bad, bad, man!" (cut and scratched 2X)



One day I was chillin, caught a buckshot

The nigga was butt, so then he gets no props

Word spread fast around town

I was layin six feet deep underground, check it

Niggaz wished the worst, but spoke too fast

Cause here I am and I'm ready to blast *gunshot*

The cops must have missed, takin me for a bitch

Because they tried to gas me, and make me turn snitch

But I'm not the one for peace

So I turned around and said, "Fuck the police!"

I'm the type to handle this on my own

Pack two joints and pass one to Tone

There's no shame in my game, I do what I gotta do

See I'm rollin with a crazy live crew

Now in ninety-three it's time to take a stand

And you know how I'm livin I'ma bad, bad, man!



Yeah! Niggaz know the flav

"I'm a bad, bad, man!" (cut and scratched)

Nuff respect to my man Jazzy J

Diamond D, Showbiz and A.G., and I'm out

Word



"I'm a bad, bad, man!" (cut and scratched to end
