[Rihanna:]
I come fluttering in from Neverland
Time could never stop me, no, no, no, no
I know you try to
I come riding in on a pale white horse
Sending out ice to less fortunate
I do advise you
Run it back, run it on back
When you're breaking it down for me
Cause I can hear you two times
Run it on back, will it ever make sense to me?
I got to do things
My own way darling
Will you ever let me?
Will you ever respect me? No
Do things my own way darling
You should just let me
Why you will never let me grow?
[SZA:]
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
[Rihanna:]
Let me cover your shit in glitter
I can make it gold, gold
Heard you're tryna sell your soul, baby
Word on the street you're running low, lately
I needed you to please give my reflection a break
From the face it's seeing now
Ooh darling would you mind giving my reflection a break
From the pain it's feeling now?
[Rihanna & SZA:]
I got to do things
My own way darling
You should just let me
Will you ever respect me? No
Do things my own way darling
You should just let me
Why you will never let me grow
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
When I look outside my window
I can't get no peace of mind
[SZA (Rihanna):]
Gettin' no peace
Gettin' no peace
Get, get, getting no peace
Gettin' no peace
(Get, g-g-get no peace oh)

I'd rather be smoking weed
Whenever we breathe
Everytime you kiss me
Don't say that you miss me
Just come get me
Don't know why just know I want to
Don't know why just know I want you
I'd rather be breaking things
Cause we can't see
We're too busy kissing
Just making scenes
Here come the police
They know about your history
How you live and love like "f*ck rules"?
Don't care why, just know I love you
Whenever we breathe
Everytime you kiss me
Don't say that you miss me
Just come get me
Don't know why just know I want to
Don't know why just know I want you
I'd rather be breaking things
Cause we can't see
We're too busy kissing
Just making scenes
Here come the police
They know about your history
How you live and love like "f*ck rules"?
Don't care why, just know I love you

You took my heart on my sleeve for decoration
You mistaken my love I brought for you for foundation
All that I wanted from you was to give me
Something that I never had
Something that you've never seen
Something that you've never been!
Mmmmm!
But I wake up and act like nothing's wrong

If you had a twin, I would still choose you
I don't wanna rush into it, if it's too soon
But I know you need to get done, done, done, done
If you come over
Sorry if I'm way less friendly
I got niggas tryna end me, oh

Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'

You was good on the low for a faded f*ck, on some faded love
Shit, what the f*ck you complaining for?

Used to trip off that shit I was kickin' to you
Had some fun on the run though I give it to you
But baby, don't get it twisted
You was just another nigga on the hit list
Tryna fix your inner issues with a bad bitch
Didn't they tell you that I was a savage
F*ck your white horse and a carriage

Never told you you could have it
You needed me
Oooh, you needed me
To feel a little more, and give a little less
Know you hate to confess
But baby ooo, you needed me

Same Ol Mistakes
I can just hear them now,
"How could you let us down?"
But they don't know what I've found,
Or see it from this way round.
Feeling it overtake,
All that I used to hate,
One by one every trait,
I tried but it's way too late.
All the signs I don't read,
Two sides of me can't agree,
Will I be in too deep?
Goin' with what I always longed for.
Feel like a brand new person, (But you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well I don't care I'm in love, (Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person, (But you'll make the same old mistakes)
I finally know what it's like, (You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late, I know there's too much at stake)
(Making the same mistakes)
And I still don't know why it's happening.
(Stop while it's not too late)
And I still don't know
Finally taking flight,
I know you don't think it's right,
I know that you think it's fake,
Maybe fakes what I like,
The point is I have the right,
Not thinking in black and white,
Thinking it's worth the fight,
Soon I'll be out of sight,
Knowing it all this time,
Going with what I always longed for.
Feel like a brand new person, (But you'll make the same old mistakes)
Well I don't care I'm in love, (Stop before it's too late)
Feel like a brand new person, (But you'll make the same old mistakes)
So how do I know if it's right? (You don't have what it takes)
(Stop before it's too late)
Man I know that it's hard to digest,
But maybe your story,
Ain't so different from the rest.
And I know it seems wrong to accept,
But you've got your demons,
And she's got her regrets.
Man I know that it's hard to digest,
A realisation, is as good as a guess.
And I know it seems wrong to accept,
But you've got your demons,
And she's got her regrets.
But you've got your demons,
And she's got her regrets.
Feel like a brand new person,
So how will I know that it's right?
In a new direction,
So how will I know I've gone too far?
(Stop thinking of the only option)
Feel like a brand new person,
I finally know what it's like. (Stop thinking of the only option)
In a new direction
So how will I know if its right?
(Stop thinking of the only option)
"How could you let us down?"
But they don't know what I've found,

Never Ending
Ooooohhh
Ooohhhhhh
Ghost in the mirror
I knew your face once, but now it's unclear
And I can't feel my body now
I'm separate from here and now
Oooooohhh
Oooooohhh
A drug and a dream
A lost connection, oh come back to me
So I can feel alive again
A soul and body try to mend
It's pulling me apart this time
Everything is never ending
Slipped into a parallel
I'll never understand
This feeling always gets away
Wishing I could hold on longer
It doesn't have to feel so strange
To be in love again
To be in love again
To be in love again
Oooooohhhh
Ooooooohhh
Ghost in the mirror
I knew your face once, but now it's unclear
And I can't feel my body now
I separate from here and now
Ooooooooo
Oooooohhh
Ooooooooo
Oooooohhh
It's pulling me apart this time
Everything is never ending
Slipped into a parallel
I'll never understand
This feeling always gets away
Wishing I could hold on longer
It doesn't have to feel so strange
To be in love again
To be in love again
To be in love again
Ooohhhhhh
Ghost in the mirror
I knew your face once, but now it's unclear
And I can't feel my body now
I'm separate from here and now
Oooooohhh

So I can feel alive again
A soul and body try to mend
It's pulling me apart this time

Love On The Brain
And you got me like oh

And I tried to buy your pretty heart, but the price too high

Higher
This whiskey got me Feelin pretty
So pardon if I'm impolite
I just really need your ass with me
I'm sorry 'bout the other night
And I know I could be more creative
And come up with poetic lines
But I'm turnt up upstairs and I love you
Is the only thing that's in my mind
You take me higher
Higher than I've ever been babe
Just come over let's pour a drink babe
I hope I ain't calling you too late
Too late
You're like my fire
Let's stay up late and smoke a jay
I wanna go back to the old way
But I'm drunk instead with a full ash tray
With a little bit too much to say
So pardon if I'm impolite
I just really need your ass with me
I'm sorry 'bout the other night
And I know I could be more creative
And come up with poetic lines
But I'm turnt up upstairs and I love you
Is the only thing that's in my mind
You take me higher
Higher than I've ever been babe
Just come over let's pour a drink babe
I hope I ain't calling you too late

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 let you go
But I won't
No you don't need my protection
But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking
I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes
Somewhere close to you
Close to you
Like so close if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out
Just say now, I'm coming right now, to be close to you
Said you let it go, you kept it
Working hard to perfect it
Now your fear is reckless, and it's out of your control
Would you let it go?
No you don't need my protection
But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking
I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes
Somewhere close to you
Close to you
Like so close if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out
If you let me, I'd be there by now
Close to you
Watching you pretend you're unaffected
You're pulling our connections, expecting me to let you go
But I won't
No you don't need my protection

Sex With Me
Sex with me, so amazing
All this hard work, no vacation
Stay up off my Instagram, pure temptation
Hit a switch on a fake nigga, like a station
Sex with me, so amazing
Sex with me, so amazing
Vodka and water, and a lemon
And a few other things I can not mention
Oh-na-na-na-na
Five fingers on it (five fingers)
Hit it like you own it, I'ma hit it like I'm on it
Straight shots of the blue dot
(Shots, shots, shots, shots)
Baby, I'ma pick your poison
Ooh-wee, ah-yeah, you gon' need it
I'm off that la-la
I'ma get it wet like Jacuzzi
And sex with me, so amazing
All this hard work, no vacation
Stay up off my Instagram, pure temptation
Sex with me, sex with me, sex with me
So amazing, so amazing
You know I got the sauce (sauce), you know I'm saucy
And it's always wet, a bitch never ever had to use lip gloss on it
I'ma need you deeper than six, it's not a coffin
When I'm making love, tryna get nasty
Wrap up your drugs, come make me happy
Sex with me is amazing, with her it'll feel alright
The sex doesn't get any better, make it long, let it be all night
I know, I know, I make it hard to let go
Tonight, all night, I'm Monroe
Even if I'm alone
Sex with me, so amazing
All this hard work, no vacation
Stay up off my Instagram, pure temptation
Hit a switch on a fake nigga like a station
Sex with me so amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing
Sex with me, so amazing

Anti is the eighth studio album by Barbadian singer Rihanna. It was released on 28 January 2016 by Roc Nation and Westbury Road. Rihanna started recording in 2014 after departing from Def Jam Recordings, who had released all of her albums since her 2005 debut. As executive producer, Rihanna recorded Anti with producers including Jeff Bhasker, Boi-1da, DJ Mustard, Hit-Boy, Brian Kennedy, Timbaland and No I.D., at studios in Canada, the United States and France. SZA and Drake contribute guest vocals.
Conceived in the midst of creative struggles and emotional turmoil, Anti is characterized by atmospheric production incorporating lo-fi beats, distorted vocals and downtempo arrangements. The first half consists of bass-heavy tracks, while the second is characterised by textured minimalism. Compared to the radio-friendly dance songs which had characterised Rihanna's prior discography, Anti is more muted and soulful. Primarily a pop, dancehall, psychedelic soul and alternative R&B record, Anti also incorporates an array of eclectic influences spanning from dancehall, hip hop, soul, industrial, psychedelic, doo-wop, country, synth-rock and trap. The lyrics are about the emotions ensued from love and relationships, from endearment and desire to betrayal and liberation, with references to sex, drugs and alcohol.
The promotional campaign for Anti from summer 2014 comprised prolonged release delays and a $25 million deal with Samsung. Rihanna announced the cover art and title at the MAMA Gallery on 7 October 2015. The Anti World Tour ran from March to November 2016, and four songs were released as singles, including the US Billboard Hot 100 number one "Work". In the United States, Anti is Rihanna's second number-one album and the first album by a black woman to spend 300 weeks on the Billboard 200; it was certified six-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album topped charts in Canada and Norway, and it received multi-platinum certifications in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, New Zealand, and Poland.
Upon its release, critics commended the album's emotional honesty but were divided on the production; praise mainly centered on Rihanna's newfound musical freedom. Some took issue with the lack of radio-friendly songs and the unfocused tracklist, but others noted the musical shift marked Rihanna's artistic maturity and regarded it as one of her best albums. At the 2017 Grammy Awards, the album and its singles received six nominations, including one for Best Urban Contemporary Album.
Anti featured on 2010s decade-end lists by such publications as Billboard, NME and Pitchfork. It ranked 230th on Rolling Stone's 2020 edition of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and 55th on Apple Music 100 Best Albums. As of March 2024, Anti is the fourth-longest charting female album in Billboard 200 history.
