In west Philadelphia born and raised On the playground was where I spent most of my days Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' 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 in one little fight and my mom got scared She said, "You're movin' 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 could say that this cab was rare But I thought, "Nah, forget it" – "Yo, home to Bel-Air" Boom Boom Boom, let me hear ya say whey-o (WHEY-O) Boom Boom Boom, let me hear ya say whey-o (WHEY-O) Boom Boom Boom, let me hear ya say whey-o (WHEY-O) Boom Boom Boom, let me hear ya say whey-o (WHEY-O) I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabbie, "Yo home smell ya later" I looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air

I hope that our few remaining friends Give up on trying to save us I hope we come up with a fail-safe plot To piss off the dumb few that forgave us I hope the fences we mended Fall down beneath their own weight And I hope we hang on past the last exit I hope it's already too late And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here Someday burns down And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away And I never come back to this town again In my life I hope I lie And tell everyone you were a good wife And I hope you die I hope we both die I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow I hope it bleeds all day long Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises We're pretty sure they're all wrong I hope it stays dark forever I hope the worst isn't over And I hope you blink before I do I hope I never get sober And I hope when you think of me years down the line You can't find one good thing to say And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out You'd stay the hell out of my way I am drowning There is no sign of land You are coming down with me Hand in unlovable hand And I hope you die I hope we both die

about

Look, things right now are shit. There's this crummy virus making people ill, killing people and we're all in lockdown. Because my job is not an essential service I'm now on furlough leave until this is all over, that's fine by me because I know I have a job to come back to and 80% of my wages, but in the meantime, I need to keep busy and I accidentally (no, really, I was just looking to see if I would get accepted on credit through Klarna) bought a nice condenser microphone, so that's my project. To record some covers, maybe some original stuff, and give it away to you to listen to.

All I ask, is that if you do enjoy what I'm doing, please make a donation to the Trussell Trust, because right now food banks are struggling. In times of crisis like this, donations to food banks dry up.

For me, eh?
