You can do either. You lease is still in full effect until it ends. Just be prepared to move then. Also, you need to make sure you do NOTHING to violate the lease, as they will be looking for a reason to evict you.
On the other hand, this situation could become very hostile very quick. You do have the right to ask for more money to leave.
