A Cut Above (Remix)

(CHORUS)
Here's what it looks like (looks like!)
Being the best
What it looks like
To be a cut above the rest

(VERSE 1)
Jump in the water, time to get a little wetter 
'cause anything that you can do, I can do it better
I'm never gonna rest if it's less than the gold
You can see me on the throne sharing medals with the bold

I own, I've shown, I stay legit
Try to take me, there's no way I'm ever gonna quit
This is it. 
I'm always on, ready for a battle
doesn't matter if it's Beijing or back in Seattle

I'm amphibious, I live this, the world is my pool
while I'm backstroking chillin, you're just choking like a fool
Stay cool. Make a choice, you can swim or drown
I'll tell you right now, go against me, 
You're going down!

(CHORUS)

(VERSE 2)
Nothing is free, but see me, I don't flee
I'm the epitome of everything you're never gonna be
I earned my respect while you were clowning around
Now I'm royalty and everybody bows to the crown

Stay down!
I've been down since day one
I worked until my bones ached while others had fun
Now I'm known on the streets, they call me a smash hit
Ask around, what you know about me? 
You don't quit!

I never back down, never stop, never pause
This is my ambition, my mission, my cause
No flaws. I get to see the thing you fear
Every single day when I look in the mirror

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)
The crowd is so loud it sounds like a riot
then suddenly it all stops and everything is quiet
I'm up on the platform, I'm ready to go
About to show the whole world so that everybody knows
