Truly outrageous!

[delirifacient.livejournal.com]

In West Philadelphia born and raised, on the playground is where I spent most of my days. chilling out back relaxing I was cool(??) when I was shooting some hoops outside of the school, a couple of guys who were up to no good, started causing trouble in the neighborhood. I got in one little fight & my mom got scared, she said "you're moving in with your auntie & uncle in Bel Air." I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said FRESH and it had dice on the mirror! I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 & I said to the cabby, yo homes, smell ya later! Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Aire.

I don't know if that's all correct, but I can't believe I remember that much!!!!
