It’s hard being a bad girl and no one knows this better than the original bad gal herself, Rihanna. She’s managed to channel all her awesomeness into her latest release, "ANTI," and did not disappoint. There are lyrical gems in every song that serve as the perfect motivator, self-affirmer or just to remind us that sometimes it’s hard out here.
"Consideration"
"I got to do things my own way darling. Will you ever let me? Will you ever respect me? No."
"James Joint"
“How you live and love like ‘f*ck rules’? Don’t care why, just know I love you.”
"Kiss It Better
“Man, fuck yo pride
Just take it on back, boy, take it on back, boy”
Work
“I believed in all of your dreams, adoration
You took my heart and my keys and my patience”
Desperado
“I’m not tryna go against you
Actually, I’m going with you”
Woo
“I bet she could never make you cry
‘Cause the scars on your heart are still mine”
Needed Me
“Didn’t they tell you that I was savage?
F*ck your white horse and a carriage”
Yeah, I Said It
“And I think I kinda like ya
Up against the wall, we don’t need a title”
Same Ol' Mistakes

But you’ve got your demons, and she’s got her regrets”

Just to get close to you”'
Higher

So pardon if I’m impolite”
Close To You
“Nothing but a tear, that’s all for breakfast
Watching you pretend you’re unaffected
You’re pulling our connections, expecting me to you go
But I won’t”
Pose
“All you lame a** b*tches is a no go
And if you with it go f*ckin loco, loco"
Sex With Me
