Plus, you tell me to do some research... maybe you need to practice what you preach. Im not a Rihanna fan, but look what I said about that part.
Death.. Darkness.. Lonliness.. It's a part of metal, and it can inspire some. Not that I encourage it, but some are inspirational.
Metal's lyrics are more complicated. It's literature, and some are just amazing works of art. For Example:

It's about death.. So what, it has deep philosophical meanings if you interpret it.
Also, metal isn't random screaming. For example:
