Now this is the 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 Philadelphia, born and raised
on the playground is where I spend 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 whisteled for a cab and when it came near the license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
if anything I could say that this cab was rare
but I thought, "NAW FORGET IT YO HOME TO BEL AIR!"

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
and I yelled to the cab, "YO HOME SMELL YA LATA!"
I looked at my kingdom I was finally there
to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Air
