Ryan Daniel Montgomery (born July 5, 1977), better known by his stage name Royce da 5'9", is an American rapper from Detroit, Michigan. He is best known for his longtime association with Eminem as well as his solo career, recording primarily with Carlos "6 July" Broady and DJ Premier, as well as ghostwriting for the likes of Diddy and Dr. Dre. Royce is one half of the rap duo Bad Meets Evil with Eminem, 1/4 of the hip hop group Slaughterhouse with Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz and Crooked I, and 1/2 of the hip hop group PRhyme with DJ Premier. The editors of About.com ranked him No. 30 on their list of the Top 50 MCs of Our Time (1987–2007).
He moved to Oak Park, Michigan when he was 10 years old, later acquiring the nickname "Royce" during high school after wearing a Turkish link chain with an R pendant resembling the Rolls Royce symbol. He started rapping at age 18, influenced mainly by Ras Kass, Redman, Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G., Esham, Detroit Most Wanted, and N.W.A. He signed his first deal in 1998 with Tommy Boy Records. After the label shut down, he signed a deal with Columbia where he started recording an album called Rock City, referring to Detroit's former status as home to Motown Records. When the project was heavily bootlegged, Royce left the label for Koch to re-record some of the album, eventually releasing it in 2002 as Rock City (Version 2.0). While the album did not sell very well, the DJ Premier-produced single "Boom" gained Royce some underground recognition and eventually resulted in the two working together more closely.

Life Goes On
by: Royce Da 5'9''[Royce Da 5'9"]
Yo Ivy, let me know when we rollin
We rollin? Aight..
I mean, I been through a lot man
Tommy Boy thing, the bootleggers
You know, life goes on, so what?
You gotta reach deep down in your heart, and pull out as much as you can
to get through what you goin through
I'm livin proof..
Way down DEEP in the heart of a man who was DEEP
in the palm of the hands of the truer streets
lives a - nigga who gives a, lyrical nigga the shivers
Step up and get hit cause him or his fifth'll deliver
His mouth is a gun, the cannibal speaks
You need to do more than floss the hand or the teeth
And shame on it - only thing that pops out
whenever your glock's out is a stick, and a flag with "Bang!" on it
His flow's out-grown his dreams
out of a count that he beams out-of-towners and hold down home
You niggaz showin up, with a lot of the same soldiers
I'm rollin up, pushin her outta your Range Rover
You decided to be a rider but why, would you do it
when you know you could light up my saliva like lighter fluid
Soak with writin; cause 5-9 is back
and he's about to spit thunder and shit lightning!
[Chorus: Royce Da 5'9"]
"Life goes on.."
Uh-huh, you thought I was done didn't ya?
"The world keeps turning and liiiife gooooes on.."
Thought I would run didn't ya? No no
"Life goes on.."
Never again will I, need a return
"The world keeps turning and.."
(And I will never leave these streets again)
"Life goes on.."
Uh-huh, you thought I was done didn't ya?
"The world keeps turning and liiiife gooooes on.."
Thought I would run didn't ya? No no
"Life goes on.."
Long as I live, I'ma continue to burn
"The world keeps turning and.."
(Na na na na na na na)
[Royce Da 5'9"]
My crew never call me for beef – NO! It never happens to me
That's like callin a SWAT team when it's a cat in a tree
It's too many reasons, to tell you NIGGA please
You can do nothin with me, like weed with too many seeds in it
I'm more - vicious, it gets - more pathetic
You testin somethin more than a medic nigga or mortician
I'm more than rap, I will RUSH you
For the sacks like Warren Sapp, like nigga FUCK you
I'll STUFF you in a Atlanta mansion
Paint the wall with you on "Candid Camera," like I'm a phantom answered
Demand a ransom; cause a fire at your momma's house
and take, all of the tires off of the ambulances
Of course the track, fits Mr. King

With Jay-Dilla, from Slum Village
You lookin for us, we be in Rock City nigga - come get us!
[Chorus]
"Life goes on.."
"The world keeps turning and liiiife gooooes on.."
"Life goes on.."
"The world keeps turning and.."
"Turning and liiiife gooooes on.."
"Life goes on.."
"The world keeps turning and.."
"Life goes on.."
