Composition
Joyner Lucas raps the first verse, followed by both rappers delivering the hook. In his verse, Joyner raps, "Rather not associate with suckers, we don't need no ties, sick of niggas acting like they motherfuckin' sneaker size", referring to removing fake friends from his life and maintaining his peace.[1] In the second verse, YoungBoy's aggressive lyrics are directed toward the shady women in his life, rapping, "She leave out, know they entering in a minute / She don't like me, I know she just want to get it / Had to kick the bitch out for playing with me".[2]
Critical reception
Lavender Alexandria of HotNewHipHop praised the collaboration, writing "'Cut U Off' starts lowkey and gives both artists the chance to flex their lyrical game. Once the beat drops though it becomes a high-energy banger. Surprisingly, Youngboy morphs his sound quite a bit to blend in with Joyner's energy and the results are great."[3]
