I'm going to take this in an incredible dark direction and say That's Just the Way That I Feel by Purple Mountains. This record is essentially a suicide note for artist David Berman, who killed himself shortly after it released.
It's more sad rather than angry at the world, but the poetic lyrics just tear me apart:
Course I've been humbled by the void
Much of my faith has been destroyed
I've been forced to watch my foes enjoy
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude
And as the pace of life keeps quickening
Beneath the *removed* and the bickering
When I try to drown my thoughts in gin
I find my worst ideas know how to swim
In honor of the late, great Steve Albini, Kerosene, by his band Big Black. It's been covered by a few bands, but no one has managed the harsh, nihilistic electro-punk feel of the original.
It's very clever written and targeted at a former highschool of the popular German rapper - which now boasts about him attending it for a few months but back then discriminated him from day one.
(...) A nightmare, nicely wrapped in gold
Stuffed in our heads
And we just accept
In our human density
Bread and games modern
I call it enslavement
A mental enslavement
And you call it life
Personally I like Jack Johnson - Upside down for the "Fuck you" as in "Fuck you world, I'm not going to let you ruin my day. I'm going for a walk and to enjoy life."

But not in a "fuck you world, I'll do what I want" kinda way. More of a "I wanna watch it burn" kinda way.

And this is why you don’t indulge in sadism. The other side of the game sucks really bad.
