Kay, what's this on your iPod
Tell me what you listening to
Why you jumping bout his money
I ain't hear him mention you
I know this aggravates you
And it upsets you
But I change you
I know how you hear me is this better
Yeah girl you like this
Yeah this your language
Life is short in black and white
Just like little penguins
Why you in Social Studies
Screaming and arguing
Why you Dr. Killjoy
Shooting up the party
Where you get that money from
Wait where you running to
Why I hearing sirens
Where them blue lights coming to
Dog you're a genius
You can blueprint and plan this
Instead of playing video games

You the schools biggest cut up
Riding in your mama car booming like a motherfucker

Don't you know with no money

I know you're a light
And there's a lamp to let inside
It's not just burning bright
It won't blow up in your face if you try
I know you try hard
But you gotta try harder
Now you got your light to find your way
You're a multi-tasker
You're doing things faster
Are you going to let this guy give in your decay
You so anti don't I matter (what!)
You so you so anti don't I matter (You punk bitch!)

Motherfucker are you A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D.
You jump around like you A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D.
You kiss the steel like you A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D.
You fuck around like you A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D. A.D.H.D.
The lyrics of N¤E¤R¤D's song "Anti Matter" seem to be a critical commentary on the current generation's penchant for being anti-establishment or anti-authority. The song begins with an invitation to tilt one's head back and close one's eyes, perhaps to help the listener focus and concentrate on the message being delivered. The chorus then accuses someone, possibly the listener or a general anti-authority figure, of being anti-matter and not valuing the people around them. The verse then talks about someone's liking for music that talks about money and a hostile confrontation with authority, which seems to be about the listener's association with a certain lifestyle, perhaps one that promotes being anti-authority. Pharrell, the singer, then urges the listener to try harder and not give in to the decay caused by such an attitude.
The second verse makes observations about the listener's behavior, such as booming their music loudly in their mother's car, spitting lyrics endlessly, and even shoplifting. The implication is that these anti-authority behaviors aren't productive and may cause more harm than good. Again, the chorus reiterates the sentiment that whoever is anti-matter doesn't seem to value those around or care about the consequences of their actions. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and an exasperated observation that the listener behaves like they have A.D.H.D, possibly indicating a restlessness and impatience that may be fueling their behavior.

Tilt your head back and close your eyes
Relax and focus, take a moment to clear your mind
What's that on your iPod
What music are you listening to

I'ma change ya / I know how you hear me / Is this better
I will try to change your behavior, and communicate in a way you can better understand
You're a multi-tasker / You're doing things faster
You have the potential for greatness, and can accomplish multiple tasks efficiently
