[Verse 1]
People talk big
I been through the dirt
Came from prison
Still got scars that work
Cops always watching
Head on a swivel, I move
Hoes playing games
Like I don’t see through
I keep it real
You be lying about everything
I seen fake smiles
Turn cold in a second, swing
I don’t chase peace
I just stay on guard
Same old pressure
Same old chipped-up heart
[Pre-Chorus]
You say my name
Like I’m the one to blame
But I know the truth
And it don’t sound the same
All that fronting
Only gets you so far
I walk in the flame
I don’t fear the dark
[Chorus]
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
They point, I grin
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
Say what you want
I’m still the villain
[Verse 2]
Back when the door shut
I learned how to read the room
One eye on the exit
One eye on the looming doom
You want a clean story
Mine got mud on the page
Broke hands, hard lessons
Kept my name in the cage
You can sell that lie
I won’t sign my soul
I made peace with the wolves
Now they know I’m cold
Every move measured
Every word got weight
If you came for the truth
You showed up too late
[Pre-Chorus]
You say my name
Like I’m the one to blame
But I know the truth
And it don’t sound the same
All that fronting
Only gets you so far
I walk in the flame
I don’t fear the dark
[Chorus]
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
They point, I grin
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
Say what you want
I’m still the villain
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m rough
Maybe I don’t bend
Maybe I’m the one
Who don’t pretend
If they want a monster
I’ll wear that crown
I’ve been down so long
I know that ground
[Chorus]
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
They point, I grin
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
I’m still the villain
Say what you want
I’m still the villain
