"Mr. Porter has asked me to warn you
That this next joint may harm your speakers
Especially if you're riding in a whip with a shitty system
Ha ha ha, I made a funny."

[Intro]
Uhh {"As we proceed, to give you what you need"}
5'9" motherfuckers
Get live motherfuckers

[Royce Da 5'9"]
Get ready {"Cause this ain't"} FUNNY!
{"My name's"} 5'9" and I'm about to get MONEY!
If you could name another nigga that can do it
Quite the way I do it I will have to say I blew it
Biggie, Pun, 'Pac'll say "I knew it, homie is the truest"
So let your cronies know you're only phony as your crew is
When that beat start, droppin and that heat start, poppin
Now that "Street Hop" is knockin
OxyContin, crack, coke, weed
Her-o-in; we're, cho-sen
OxyContin, crack, coke, weed
Her-o-in; we're {dope dope.."}
Nigga stop jockin, if I ain't like God then God is just like me
Firin squad, I am so fly God can Skype me
I am me, I am simply my own envy
I'm jealous of myself, by all means

[Hook: Royce Da 5'9"]
I'm {"Fresh!"}
Tell you da-da-da-ding, call me
Cause {"We are"} {"Fresh!"}
Dope boy {"Fresh!"}...
{"Today's agenda"} Hip-Hop {"Niggas bleed"} dick shots
{"There's never been a nigga this good for this long"}
{"Today's agenda"} Fuck y'all hoes {"Get money"}
I'm so dope boy, rock-rock star {*scratched*: "Fresh! Fresh!"}

[Royce Da 5'9"] + (Mr. Porter)
Triumphant, honestly I am just here to get clear
Like Niacin dietin bullets take a nigga weight away from him
Like Jared from Subway, tryin to get full and
I am the bull and you ridin, blow your puddin inside of your hooded
I'm out of my mind, +ketchup+ or y'all'll be Heinz
I am (I'm just playin wit y'all niggas!)
Sinister pimpin with benefits {"I put the gun to ya"}
{"Put that knife in ya, take a little bit of life from ya"}
And use a sample to finish my sentences
Y'all niggas extra, I call all my niggas comin to get ya
I call all my bitches Carmen Electra
Extra {"BITCH!"} Read all about me
Newspaper, move fakers, food taker, I'm starvin
I bombard you so pardon like I'm fartin
The one comes with a bullet, that goes beyond chartin
You couldn't finish what I'm startin

[Hook]

[Mr. Porter]
... I'm just playin wit y'all niggas!

Royce da 5'9", real name Ryan Daniel Montgomery, is undoubtedly one of the underground rap kings of Detroit. The Michigan MC is a long-time collaborator of Eminem’s, meeting him in December 1997, and is noted as one of the greatest lyricists in hip-hop’s history (in 2012, The Source ranked him as the 48th greatest lyricist of all time in their top 50, this questionable ranking unsurprisingly being scrutinized by many as a gross misjudgment).

Although critics have previously cast shade on his ability to create a well-rounded body of work, many, critics included, considered his sophomore effort, Death is Certain (2004), to be a strong album. To learn more in-depth about his solo discography, read this page (the page listed is old, so it is not updated).

Royce is the Bad half of Bad Meets Evil (with Eminem), ¼ of Slaughterhouse (alongside Crooked I KXNG CROOKED, Joe Budden and Joell Ortiz), and ½ of PRhyme (with DJ Premier). Royce currently operates a independent record label, Bad Half Entertainment.
