....all about how, my life got flipped turned upside down, now I'd like to take a minute just sit right there, I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called bel air. In west philadelphia, born and raised, on a playground was where I spent most of my days, chillin out max and relaxing all cool and shootin some b-ball outside of the school, when a couple of guys who were up to no good, started making trouble in my neighboorhood. I got in one little fight and my mom got scared, she said "you're moving with your aunt and uncle in bel air". I rolled up to the house about 7 or 8 and and I yelled to the cabbie "yo ho, smell ya later". Looked at my kingdom I was finally there, to sit on my throne, now the prince of bel air.
