Rihanna - Anti Album Lyrics

[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

Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby

Been waiting on that sunshine
Boy, I think I need that back
Can't do it like that
No one else gon' get it like that
So why argue? You yell, but you take me back
Who cares when it feels like crack?
Boy you know that you always do it right
Man, f*ck your pride, just take it on back, boy
Take it on back boy, take it back all night
Just take it on back, take it on back
Mmm, do what you gotta do, keep me up all night
Hurting vibe, man, and it hurts inside when I look you in your eye

[Chorus:]
What are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Oh, what are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby

Been waiting on that sunshine
Boy, I think I need that back
Can't do it like that
No one else gonna get it like that
So why are you, you here? Here to take me back?
Who cares when it feels like crack?
Boy, you know that you always do it right
Man, f*ck your pride, just take it on back, boy
Take it on back boy, take it back all night
Just take it on back, take it on back
Mmm, do what you gotta do, keep me up all night
Hurting vibe, man, and it hurts inside when I look you in your eye

[Chorus:]
What are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Oh, what are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby

I've been waiting up all night
Baby, tell me what's wrong
Gonna make it right
Make it all night long
I've been waiting up all night
Baby, tell me what's wrong
Go on and make it right
Make it all night long
Man, f*ck your pride, just take it on back
Just take it on back bae, take it back all night
Just take it on back, take it on back
Mmm, do what you gotta do, keep me up all night
Hurting vibe, and it hurts inside when I look you in your eye

[Chorus:]
What are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Oh, what are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
What are you willing to do?
Oh, tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Oh, what are you willing to do?
Oh (tell me, baby), tell me what you're willing to do?
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby
Kiss it, kiss it better, baby

You took my heart and my keys and my patience
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

[Verse 3 - Drake:]
Yeah, okay
You need to get done, done, done, done at work, come over
We just need to slow the motion
Don't give that away to no one
Long distance, I need you
When I see potential I just gotta see it through
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
I spilled all my emotions tonight, I'm sorry
Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
How many more shots until you're rollin'?
We just need a face to face
You could pick the time and the place
You spent some time away
Now you need to forward and give me all the...

Desperado
Sitting in a old Monte Carlo
A man whose heart is hollow
Uh huh, take it easy
I'm not tryna go against you
Actually, I'm going with you

Gotta get up out of here
And you ain't leaving me behind
I know you won't, cause we share common interests
You need me, there ain't no leaving me behind
Never, no, no, just want out of here
Yeah, once I'm gone, ain't no going back

If you want we could be it run away
Running from any sight of love
Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing here for me
There ain't nothing here for me anymore
But I don't wanna be alone

Desperado
Sitting in an old Monte Carlo
We've both had our hearts broke, uh huh
Take it easy
I'm not trying to go against you
I can be a lone wolf with ya

Gotta get up out of here
And you ain't leaving me behind
I know you won't, cause we share common interests
You need me, there ain't no leaving me behind
Never, no, no, both want out of here
Yeah, once we're gone, ain't no going back

If you want, we could be runaways
Running from any sight of love
Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing here for me
There ain't nothing here for me anymore
I don't wanna be alone

Dear desperado
Yeah I don't wanna be alone
Dear desperado
Yeah I don't wanna be alone

[2x]
If you want, we could be runaways
Running from any sight of love
Yeah, yeah, there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing here for me
There ain't nothing here for me anymore
But I don't wanna be alone

[Travis Scott:]
Woo
Woo, woo, yeah
Woo, woo, yeah
Aw yeah, aw yeah, aw yeah

[Rihanna:]
I bet she could never make you cry
'Cause the scars on your heart are still mine
Tell me that she couldn't get this deep
She can almost be the worst than me
Too bad she's just eating off your dreams
Let me know when you're ready to plea
Maybe you just need to send for me
Send for me, send for me
Send for me, send for me, send for me

[Travis Scott:]
Woo
Woo, woo, yeah
Woo, woo, yeah
Aw yeah, aw yeah, aw yeah

[Rihanna:]
I've been thinking 'bout you late at night
I've been thinking only of you
Ain't nothing else to really talk about
Boy show me what you want to do
These days you've been feeling lonely
Yeah I've been feeling lonely too
I'm a f*ck it up, won't you show me some
Run it back like you owe me some

Tell me how you think without the drugs
Maybe you just need to send for me
I don't even really love you
I don't even really care about you
I don't even really love you
I don't even really care about you no more
I don't even really care about you no more
I don't even really care about you no more

Send for me, send for me

Aw yeah, aw yeah, aw yeah

[YG:]
Mustard on the beat ho!

[Rihanna:]
I was good on my own, that's the way it was, that's the way it was
You was good on the low for a faded f*ck, on some faded love
Shit, what the f*ck you complaining for?
Feeling jaded huh?
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
Bet you never could imagine
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

You been rollin' around, shit I'm rollin up
Light and roll it up
Break it down like a pound, shit was never us
Shit was never us
That's the real on the real, are you serious?
How you feel, how you feel?
Used to trip off that shit I was kickin' to ya
Had some fun on the run though, I give it to ya

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
Bet you never could imagine
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

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
I ain't tryin' to think about it, no
Yeah, I said it, boy, get up inside it
I want you to homicide it
Going slow and I want you to pipe it
Anything I kinda like yeh
Up against the wall, we don't need a title

Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it, baby
Yeah, I said it, man f*ck a title

Boy I always like to show
Get a little bit, come a little close now
Take it home on your camera phone
Get a little bad, nigga, watch me blow it down

Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it, baby
Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it, baby
Yeah, I said it

You could be rough, boy, but you won't
Give me some love, boy, give it to me till the morn'

Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it, baby
Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it
Yeah, I said it, baby
Yeah, I said it

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)

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

And you got me like oh
What you want from me?
What you want from me?
And I tried to buy your pretty heart, but the price too high
Baby you got me like oh, mm
You love when I fall apart (fall apart)
So you can put me together
And throw me against the wall

Baby you got me like aaah, woo, aaah
Don't you stop loving me (loving me)
Don't quit loving me (loving me)
Just stop loving me (loving me), babe

Oh, and babe I'm fist fighting with fire
Just to get close to you
Can we burn something babe?
And I run for miles just to get a taste
Must be love on the brain
That's got me feeling this way
It beats me black and blue but it f*cks me so good
And I can't get enough
Must be love on the brain, yeah
And it keeps cursing my name (cursing my name)
No matter what I do
I'm no good without you
And I can't get enough
Must be love on the brain

Then you keep loving me
Just love me, yeah
Just love me
All you need to do is love me yeah
Got me like ah-ah-ah-ow
I'm tired of being played like a violin
What do I gotta do to get in your motherf*ckin' heart?

Baby like aaah, woo, aaah
Don't you stop loving me (loving me)
Don't quit loving me (loving me)
Just stop loving me (loving me), babe

Oh, and babe I'm fist fighting with fire
Just to get close to you
Can we burn something babe?
And I run for miles just to get a taste
Must be love on the brain
That's got me feeling this way
It beats me black and blue but it f*cks me so good
And I can't get enough
Must be love on the brain
And it keeps cursing my name (cursing my name)
No matter what I do
I'm no good without you
And I can't get enough
Must be love on the brain

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

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

Sex with me is amazing, with her it'll feel alright
