Here we go  now i'm back 
I got soul  although i'm not black 
Pass the mic and i'm a spark it 
Cause i'm the hottest rapper on the market 
I used to shoot dice to the curb 
Peace to my brothers on 163rd 
Hold your head and stay strong 
My main man roadie got it going on 
So now you know the time 
Bust how i flip it  check the rhyme 
I kick the hits even with the big belly 
Cause i freak the funk like my man r. kelly 
So give me that honey love 
You know what i'm thinking of 
Joe's the man with the master plan 
I got more rhymes than the beats got fans 
Peace to greg nice and smooth b 
And if you don't believe then you soon shall see 
That i'll be the last to survive 
I won't fake the funk, i won't take a dive 
So now you know what's up 
I make the crowd bounce and get on up 
"get on up" "get on up!" (repeat 4x) 
This is a jam for the radio station 
Peace to the whole zulu nation 
I'm so bad, call the cops 
I got props, i'm gonna rule hip-hop 
Cause i'm the only real rap monster 
I love eating shrimp and lobster 
City island is my favorite place 
Step in sammy's and dog my face 
Losing weight, that must be a joke 
Cause i eat four steaks and drink a diet coke 
Although i'm big i won't take a swig 
Of the moet, it makes me a much worse poet 
And you know that's not the mood, black 
Diamond always hits me with the crazy fat tracks 
So now you know what's up 
I make the crowd bounce, get on up 
"get on up" "get on up!" (repeat 4x) 
"get on up" is the name of this song 
Bounce to the beat if you got it going on 
Now in '93, maybe '94 
They'll have a fat joe tour 
Coming to your town with the brand new sound 
Representing for the whole boogie down 
So don't grab the mic or you'll get hurt 
If you come in a bez then you'll leave in a hearse 
That's that, everybody knows the flav 
Misbehave and you'll dig your own grave 
Fat joe, chopping down trees 
Nuff respect to showbiz & a.g. 
Peace to my buckwild crew from the bronx 
I hope you'll strike me gets a good response 
And if you like the vibe, act like you know 
You can get on up with your man fat joe, and i'm out 
"get on up" "get on up!" (repeat 4x) 
To my people from brooklyn, get on up 
And to my people from manhattan, get on up 
To my people from the bronx (get on up) 
To my people from cali 
To my people from texas 
To my people from atlanta 
To my people in detroit 
Everybody in the world just get on up 
"get on up" "get on up!" (repeat 4x)
