The controversial lyrics feature on the 26-year-old's new song Follow the Leader, which is taken off his rap mixtape All The World Is A Stage.
The song is reported to include the line: “Look at what you do to me, I’m crying over stupid s***, you’re such a f****** homophobe, wish I’d never let you in, to think that I was thinking maybe I should let you live, I’m gonna blow up your family like I’m a terrorist.”
It is suggested music mogul Cowell is now keen to dump Arthur over his latest controversy.
"He has done himself no favours with his outbursts. It’s as if he’s almost willing Syco to drop him."
The new row comes after Arthur was recently involved in a string of online feuds.
He was also heavily scrutinised for making alleged homophobic slurs at the end of last year.
The Nicole Scherzinger-mentored act hit Twitter last night to defend his lyrics.
He claims the song is written in the style of rapper Eminem's hit Stan, in which a disillusioned fan writes to his one-time hero.
Arthur posted: "The song "follow the leader" from the mixtape is not promoting terrorism, it's a story, a reciting of a Stan Esc [sic] letter from a demented fan.
He later added: "As far as I know I am still with syco but I am exclusively signed to Sony. People look too deeply into the media circus. It's about music."
