(Intro "Rent-Free")
Yeah… I live in my head, no rent, no lease
Mind’s a palace—only the strong find peace
(Verse 1)
I’m livin’ in my head, penthouse views
No mortgage, no debt, just me, no dues
Could go rogue, masked up, pull a scene like Cruise
Or sip my whiskey slow, with my new pair of shoes
Live how I do, you would do the same
Rewrite my past like I’m changing the frame
Direct my fate, yeah, I play every role
Lead actress, no script, got the world in control
I been a fighter, a ghost in the night
Survivor of trauma, still sharpen the knife
Pops was drownin’ in bottles, lost in the waves
And moms was a shadow, never in place
So I built up a fortress inside of my mind
No trespassers here—leave the weak ones behind
Now it’s me, all me, and the weight on my shoulders
Took enough L’s, but they turned into boulders
A queen with no crown, but I’m running the scene
I play mind games, but it’s never routine
Cards close to my chest, got a deck full of kings
But I move like a bishop—every step is a scheme
(Chorus)
I’m livin’ in my head, no rent, no lease
Where the pain can’t touch, where the thoughts run free
Could be a villain, a queen, or a beast
But I rise every time, yeah, that’s just me
Lady or a ghetto? I embody both
But test me once, you’ll regret it the most
(Verse 2)
Betrayed by the ones that I once called mine
Now the love’s all gone, like a scam on the ‘Gram
So I cut through the noise, let the silence speak
Learned real fast that the loyal run deep
So now I move solo, no crew, no ties
Learned the hard way, every smile tells lies
Loyalty’s dead, yeah, I read the eulogy
Ain’t no love in the game, just fuckology
Took the daggers they threw, turned ‘em all into tools
Built a throne out of pain, now I write the rules
Now my heart’s on guard, no keys, no thieves
A locked vault—ain't no tricks up its sleeve
(Pre-Chorus - Repeat)
A queen with no crown, but I’m running the scene
I play mind games, but it’s never routine
Cards close to my chest, got a deck full of kings
But I move like a bishop—every step is a scheme
(Chorus - Repeat)
I’m livin’ in my head, no rent, no lease
Where the pain can’t touch, where the thoughts run free
Could be a villain, a queen, or a beast
But I rise every time, yeah, that’s just me
Lady or a ghetto? I embody both
But test me once, you’ll regret it the most
(Verse 3 - NEW)
I was built from the fire, forged in the deep
Turned nightmares to lessons, I don’t lose no sleep
They whisper my name but don’t say it direct
'Cause I move like a shadow, I’m quiet, I check
I don’t fold, don’t bend, don’t break for the pressure
If life is a test, I just keep getting better
Had to bet on myself when the odds were all low
Now I’m stacking these wins like a Vegas casino
They told me I’d fail, that I’d never survive
But I turned every doubt into fuel for my drive
Now my past is a canvas, my pain is the brush
I paint my own future, no need for "good luck"
(Bridge)
Are you catchin’ the flow? Keep up with the pace
Switched up the lane, now I’m leading the race
I might crack a smile, but it ain’t for the weak
A wolf in a dress, still a beast underneath
I don’t need validation, I don’t need a crew
I was born alone, I got nothin’ to prove
But if you cross me, better watch your back
'Cause revenge is a mirror, and I’m good with the glass
(Chorus - Repeat)
I’m livin’ in my head, no rent, no lease
Where the pain can’t touch, where the thoughts run free
Could be a villain, a queen, or a beast
But I rise every time, yeah, that’s just me
Lady or a ghetto? I embody both
But test me once, you’ll regret it the most
(Outro )
Yeah… I live in my head, no rent, no lease
Mind’s a palace—only the strong find peace
And if you step wrong? You rest in peace
I ain't gotta say it twice…
"Rent-Free"
