Now this is a story all about how,
My life got flipped turned upside down,
And 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 Philadephia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days.
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin' all cool,
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school.
When a couple of guys who were up to no good,
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared,
And said "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air."
I whistled for a cab, and when it came near,
The license plate said "FRESH" and it had a dice in the mirror.
If anything I could say that this cab was rare,
But I thought "Man forget it, Yo homes to Bel Air."
I pulled up to the house about seven or eight,
And I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes, smell ya later."
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there,
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air.
