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 Philadelphia, born and raised,
On the playground is where I spent most of my days,
Chillin out maxin' and relaxin' all cool,
And while shootin' some b-ball outside of some school,
When a couple a guys, that were up to no good,
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood,
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared,
And said "Your movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air!"
I begged and pleaded with her to let me stay,
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way,
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket,
I put my Walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it."
First class, yo! This is bad,
Drinkin' orange juice out of a champagne glass,
Is this what the people of Bel Air live like?
Hmmm... This might be all right.
But wait, I hear 'de percy', 'bojoua' and all that,
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat?
I don't think so, I'll see when I get there,
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel Air,
Well, the plane landed and when I came out,
There was a dude looked like a cop standin' there with my name out,
I ain't tryin' to get arrested yet, I just got here,
I sprang with the quickness, like lightning, and disappeared,
I whistled for a cab and when it came near,
The liscense plate said "Fresh" and it had dice on the mirror,
If anything, I can 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 cabby, "Yo, holmes, smell ya later."
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there,
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air...
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 spent most of my days,
