In west Philadelphia born and raised On the playground is where I spent most of my days Chillin out, maxin, relaxing all cool, And shooting some b-ball outside of the school When a couple of guys who were up to no good Started making trouble in my neighborhood I got one lil fight and my mom got scared And said "You're moving 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 dice in the mirror If anything I can say this cab was rare But I thought naw forget it yo homes to Bel Air!
I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes smell ya later" I looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the punk of bel air
