Lovejoy - A Cut Above lyrics

[Verse 1: Lovejoy] I'm about to studio this guest room Past the restroom down the hall, looking all festooned With some cables and an iPad Stable sitting on the table there's my mic and Hack-T's little label and GarageBand So we don't have to do the drumming on a washpan Gosh man, Leather Watchband Man could do it all Even though I've been to where I felt like saying "screw it all" But through it all, through the winter and the fall When the trees are white and bald and want to die and you're appalled But never solving any issues that were causing me to fall Against a wall, I still crawled On my hands and knees out the gutter Daydreams and fantasies my bread and bu*ter And with this song I don't think I'll have to bother with the jam Boiling water in the pot is never hotter than I am 'Cause I've been cooking for a long time And I've been waiting for a long time For greatness, but y'all can't even make a song rhyme [Hook] I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might make a tape you can't pull out the oven with a glove Hey, I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might give a couple haters something they can grow to love [Verse 2] Hey, my flow is limitless, it's both modern and cla**ic Contemporary primitive, it's neo-Jura**ic I want to sell hella records sealed in plastic But it's tragic how a fella casting lyrical magic Could be limited by a city that's so monochromatic People and times change but the motto is static I'll automatically dominate anyone in my way And just demonstrate why all of they have got a reason to panic Atlantic and Pacific I tour the whole country, output still prolific Atypical, them basic rappers always horrific And if it comes to that I'll quit and a**ume the status of mythic Yeah I've got an ego issue But I guess that's better than having a legal issue I can tell you hated me just by the feeble people with you Even if you have been harboring ill intentions Or have a penchant for messing with eminent living legends Your attention is better spent when you're watching me from the benches 4/4 time, I'm doing 4/4 time You ask for forgiveness, answered with more rhymes More and more dime I'm making from this bi'ness Got records like Guinness, haven't even hit my prime And still [Hook] I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might give a couple haters something they can grow to love Hey, I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might beat a whole mosh pit if push comes to shove [Verse 3] Someone's causing problems, I'm pretty sure it isn't me I'm a solitary k**er, ain't nobody want to visit me All you people want to hear I did this for publicity I'm telling you explicitly without explicit lyrics I'm bringing electricity No one comes near it, only stuck in that boring old Lame flow, same beat, I'm shaming those in flames and heat Fire bringing pain so I guess you maybe blame me For burning down this game show Jeopardizing names, dropping flames while my fame grows Out of tame streets, rainbows after rain sheets I'm loving that the Covenant remains though we mistreat Everything we have, every little misdeed Piles up until we let the media just mislead Tell us that we misread Any indication situations aren't as pristine as they seem Know that nothing now is risk-free Dropping this tape will only open doors to diss me Everyone is saying that the boy's soft He's not a real rapper and his voice is off Yeah, go ahead, you can laugh and scoff But go to bed knowing this one thing Grow to love it, haters [Hook] x 2 I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might give a couple haters something they can grow to love Haters, I'm a cut above I'm a cut above I might make a full album forever spoken of
