[Intimate Low-Register Verse] [spoken intro] th-th-the cost of admission [Verse 1] It’s inevitable, there’s an increased cost You better hurry up before all is lost Catch my icy glare, baby feel my frost Try to hang on, but you’re gonna get tossed [Verse 2] I feel you watching me causing a sensation You can’t help but feel the surge of inflation Best to check your facts for valid information If you choose to go cheap, you’ll get an imitation [Pre-Chorus] [Build up] Check it... wanna know the cost of admission? Lemme show you the ass you should be kissin' [Chorus] I made emotional investments, when I chose to play But now I know I’m priceless, not some cheap cliche There’s a cost for admission, everyone's gonna pay Visceral holes in your pockets, best be on your way [Bridge] [Tempo shift, aggressive delivery] Starved of consistency, this deprivation’s unimagined Love rationed out sparsely like food in emotional famine Not looking for perfection, just reciprocity that’s not random I won’t discount my intimate time and energy The cost of admission’s high for this kind of scarcity Everybody wants to buy what they can’t get so easily And I’m in high demand, that’s rare in this economy [Beat Drop] [16 bar instrumental] [Pre-Chorus] [Build up] Check it... wanna know the cost of admission? Lemme show you the ass you should be kissin' [Chorus] I made emotional investments, when I chose to play But now I know I’m priceless, not some cheap cliche There’s a cost for admission, everyone's gonna pay Visceral holes in your pockets, best be on your way [Verse 3] I sold myself short at a steep discounted price Now I’m worth more than any amount you realize Something so rare, I am the ultimate prize A return on investment you can’t deny [Pre-Chorus] [Build up] Check it... wanna know the cost of admission? Lemme show you the ass you should be kissin' [Chorus] I made emotional investments, when I chose to play But now I know I’m priceless, not some cheap cliche There’s a cost for admission, everyone's gonna pay Visceral holes in your pockets, best be on your way [Outro] [Music stops, Spoken Word] I’m emotionally enriched… I don’t deal with the morally bankrupt, boo. [End]
