[Verse 1: Rihanna]
Got up in the club, posted in the back
Feeling so good, looking so bad
Rocking this skirt, rocking this club
Got my middle finger up, I don't really give a fuck
Rocking these diamonds, I'm rocking this chain
Make sure you get a picture, I'm rocking my fame

[Pre-Chorus: Rihanna]
To be what you is you gotta be what you are
The only thing I'm missing is a black guitar

[Chorus: Rihanna]
I'm a rockstar (rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (rockstar)
Hey baby
Big cities (big cities)
Bright lights (bright lights)
Sleep all day (all day)
Long nights
Baby, I'm a rockstar (rockstar)
Hey baby, I'm a rockstar (rockstar)
Hey baby, it's big cities (big cities)
Bright lights (bright lights)
Sleep all day (all day)
Long nights (long nights)
Long nights, long nights, long nights

[Verse 2: Rihanna]
Six-inch walker, big shit talker
I never play the victim, I'd rather be a stalker
So baby take me in, I'll disobey the law
Make sure you frisk me good
Check my panties and my bra
Wild'n out, a crazy house
With my white jacket on
Won't you come and sign me out?

[Pre-Chorus: Rihanna]
To be what you is you gotta be what you are
The only thing I'm missing is a black guitar

[Chorus: Rihanna]

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
