Quotes and Lyrics by Rihanna

Don't tell me you're sorry cause you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show, really had me going
Now it's time to go, curtain's finally closing

I take risks because I get bored. And I get bored very easily.

I always believed that when you follow your heart or your gut, when you really follow the things that feel great to you, you can never lose, because settling is the worst feeling in the world.

Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world, like I'm the only one that you'll ever love...

This is the life i live.

I want you to stay

Now there’s gravel in our voices
Glass is shattered from the fight
In this tug of war you’ll always win
Even when I’m right
‘Cause you feed me fables from your hand
With violent words and empty threats
And it’s sick that all these battles
Are what keeps me satisfied

On the first page of our story
The future seemed so bright
Then this thing turned out so evil
I don’t know why I’m still surprised

People think, because we’re young, we aren’t complex, but that’s not true. We deal with life and love and broken hearts in the same way a woman a few years older might

You know not to test me like S-A-T
They pay me like RiRi - A-S-A-P

Mentally been many places but I'm Brooklyn's own.

If I wasn't a, eight-figure n*gga by the name of Jigga
Would you come around me or would you clown me
If I couldn't flow futuristic, would ya
Put your two lips on my wood and kiss it

I think relationships are broken up because of the media.

I love what I do, and when you love what you do, you want to be the best at it.

Belief in oneself and knowing who you are, I mean, that's the foundation for everything great.

I'm from rags to riches n*ggas, i ain't dumb
I got 99 problems, but a b*tch ain't one

Psycho, I'm liable to go Michael, take your pick
Jackson, Tyson, Jordan, Game 6

If you're havin' girl problems, I feel bad for you, son
I got 99 problems, but a b*tch ain't one

We change people through conversation, not through censorship.

But I will not lose, for even in defeat
There's a valuable lesson learned, so it evens it up for me

I’m not afraid of dying, I’m afraid of not trying

I sell ice in the winter, I sell fire in hell
I am a hustler baby, I'll sell water to a well

Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the skyline
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible

Sky is the limit, every day I reach
They was tired of me winnin', now they dead sleep
Don't wan' see me with the ring? You better play D'
n*gga, God did His thing when He made me

Dear Lord, you done took so many of my people
I'm just wonderin' why you haven't taken my life
Like what the hell am I doin' right?

I'm out of my head, b*tch, I'm outta my mind
From the bottom I climb, you ain't hotter than mine
Nope, not on my time, and I'm not even tryin'
What's poppin', slime? Nothin', five

Tried to tell you its more than rap
Hold the mic with my right
Throw a jab or autograph
Throw a dab with my left and all of that

They better not holla if I cuff her for real
n*ggas better run for cover for real
Goin' bell how I feel, close the deal, pop a seal
Take the whip, two pills on the lips on the real

They say money make a n*gga act n*ggerish
But least a n*gga n*gga rich

It's a tough time, but these are the best years. Believe me.

A wasted youth is better by far than a wise and productive old age.

Emotions are most dangerous when silenced.

It's normal to understand something logically but emotionally feel something different.

All grown-ups were once children... but only few of them remember it.

You're never too old to be young.
