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
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
[Verse 2]
In West Philadelphia 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 begged and pleaded with her day after day
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
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?
Hmm, this might be all right
But wait, I hear they're prissy, bourgeois, 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
[Verse 3]
Well, uh
The plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude, looked like a cop, standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get arrested yet, I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared
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 could say that this cab was rare
But I thought "Nah, forget it, yo, Holmes, to Bel-Air!"
[Verse 4]
I pulled
Up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabbie "Yo', Holmes, smell ya later"
I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
Teraz je to príbeh o tom, ako
Môj život sa obrátil hore nohami
A chcel by som si chvíľu, len sedieť
Poviem vám, ako som sa stal princom mesta s názvom Bel-Air
[Verš 2]
V západnej Philadelphia sa narodil a zdvihol
Na ihrisku je miesto, kde som strávil väčšinu mojich dní
Chillin 'Out, Maxin', Relaxin 'Všetky Cool
A všetky Shootin 'Niektorí B-Ball mimo školy
Keď sa pár chlapcov, ktorí boli dobrí
Začal Makin 'Problémy v mojom okolí
Dostal som sa v jednom malom boji a moja mama sa bojovala
A povedal: "Si movin 's tetom a strýkom v Bel-Air"
Prosím, prosil som a prosil som jej deň po dni
Ale zabalila môj kufor a poslal ma na ceste
Dala mi bozk a potom mi dala lístok
Dal som svojho Walkmana a povedal: "Mohol by som to tiež kopať"
Prvá trieda, yo, toto je zlé
Pitie pomarančového džúsu z sklu šampanského
Je to to, čo žijú ľudia v Bel-Air?
Hmm, môže to byť v poriadku
Ale počkaj, počujem, že sú to PRISCY, BOURGOOIS a to všetko
Je to typ miesta, ktoré by mali poslať túto chladnú mačku?
Nemyslím si, že uvidím, keď sa tam dostanem
Dúfam, že sú pripravení na princ bel-air
[Verš 3]
Dobre, uh
Lietadlo pristálo a keď som vyšiel
Tam bol vole, vyzeral ako policajt, stojil tam s mojím menom
Snažím sa ešte zatknúť, práve som sa tu dostal
Ja som vyskočil s rýchlosti ako bleskom, zmizol
Zaplaval som sa pre kabínu a keď sa priblížil
Platobný štítok povedal "čerstvý" a mal do zrkadla kocky
Ak by som mohol povedať, že táto kabína bola zriedkavá
Ale myslel som si, že "Nah, zabudol na to, yo, Holmes, Bel-Air!"
[Verš 4]
Vytiahol som
Až do domu asi sedem alebo osem
A kričal som do Cabbieho "Yo ', Holmes, vôňa ya neskôr"
Pozrel som sa na moje kráľovstvo, bol som konečne
Sedieť na mojom tróne ako knieža bel-vzduch
