    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 neighbour, i got in one little fight and my mum got scared, and said you're moving with your Aunty and Uncle in Bel-Air!

    I'm sorry, I had to.
