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 was 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 making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight, and my mom got scared
She said: you're moving with your auntie and your uncle in Bel Air
