"Rent-Free"

[Intro]

Yeah…

No rent, no lease.

You’re in too deep.

Mind’s a palace, baby,

only the strong find peace.

[Verse 1]

I’m living in my head, penthouse views,

high heels on the floor, whiskey, nothing to lose.

Could go rogue one night, make a scene like Cruise,

then disappear and return in a fresh set of moves.

I live how I want, you would do the same,

if you knew how to touch pain and turn it to flame.

Rewrite my past like I’m changing the frame,

lead role energy, I don’t wait for a name.

I’ve been a fighter, ghost in the dark,

pretty little chaos with a merciless heart.

Pops drowned slow in a bottle and rage,

moms was a shadow just passing the stage.

So I built me a kingdom inside my mind,

velvet on the walls, gold on the side.

If I look too calm, that’s the mask I designed,

when you grow up in fire, you make danger look nice.

[Pre-Chorus]

Soft voice, sharp teeth,

silk dress, bad dreams.

Come close, but not too deep,

I don’t let nobody keeping me.

[Chorus]

You live rent-free

inside my mind tonight,

moving through my darkness

like shadow in the night.

I can be your heaven,

I can be your vice,

kiss you like I mean it,

cut you just as nice.

No rent, no lease,

just skin and secrets.

You want in too far,

now you can’t leave it.

You can want my love,

you can chase my heat,

but once I’ll let you in,

All the rest are in my head… rent-free.

[Verse 2]

Betrayed by the ones that I once called mine,

so I made my heart look expensive and fine.

Now I move real slow, let the silence flirt,

cause the prettiest ones know exactly how to hurt.

Every smile got layers, every touch got smoke,

I say less now, let the tension choke.

Loyalty’s rare, yeah, I buried the proof,

now I walk like a lie dressed up as the truth.

Took the daggers they threw, turned them into gold,

built a throne out of nights that should’ve left me cold.

Now my heart’s locked down, no keys, no thieves,

if you get too close, that’s on you, not me.

I don’t beg, don’t chase, don’t break, don’t plead,

I just learn what you want, then decide what you need.

And baby, that’s power, when the room goes still,

and they all feel my presence before they feel my will.

[Pre-Chorus]

Soft voice, sharp teeth,

lip gloss, cold streak.

Pull close, then I leave,

you don’t get all of me.

[Chorus]

You live rent-free

inside my mind tonight,

moving through my darkness

like shadow in the night.

I can be your heaven,

I can be your vice,

kiss you like I mean it,

cut you just as nice.

No rent, no lease,

just skin and secrets.

You want in too far,

now you can’t leave it.

You can want my love,

you can chase my heat,

but once I’ll let you in,

all the rest are in my head… rent-free.

[Verse 3]

I was built from the fire, forged in the deep,

learned how to make heartbreak look good on me.

They whisper my name, but never too loud,

cause I walk like a storm under nightclub lights.

I don’t fold for pressure, I don’t crack for praise,

I just get more dangerous with time and taste.

Had to bet on myself when the odds ran low,

now I wear my survival like a private show.

Past is a canvas, pain is a brush,

I paint my future in lies and lust.

Lady and ghetto, I embody both,

perfume on the skin with a cutthroat soul.

I might crack a smile, but don’t read it sweet,

there’s still wolf in the dress, still teeth underneath.

And if I let you stay where the real ones sleep,

better know one thing. You don’t leave me cheap.

[Bridge]

Are you catching the mood?

Are you feeling the pull?

I could ruin your balance

without lifting a tool.

I don’t need validation,

don’t need a crowd,

I make silence look sexy,

make danger feel sound.

You can call me a fantasy,

call me a threat,

call me the one

you still haven’t forget.

[Final Chorus]

You live rent-free

inside my mind tonight,

moving through my darkness

like shadow in the night.

I can be your heaven,

I can be your vice,

kiss you like I mean it,

cut you just as nice.

No rent, no lease,

just skin and secrets.

You want in too far,

now you can’t leave it.

You can want my love,

you can chase my heat,

but once I’ll let you in,

all the rest are in my head… rent-free.

[Outro]

Yeah…

No rent, no lease.

Mind’s a palace,

only the strong find peace.

And if I’m in your head,

don’t ask me to leave.

You wanted the fire.

Now you breathe it with me.
