The song "What I Want" by Ca$ is about a relationship that started out promising but eventually fell apart. The singer recalls meeting the person on the first day and being told about their dreams. The singer assured them that money was not a problem, and they just needed to tell him what they wanted. The person then said they would love him straight to the moon.
However, as time passed, things went awry, and the person decided to leave. The singer pleads with them to tell him what they want before they go. He talks about the bills that need to be paid and how he wants to fix things, but things are just not going right. He also expresses his worries and frustration at the situation.
Overall, the song seems to be about trying to salvage a failing relationship and being willing to do whatever it takes to make it work. The lyrics are emotional and heartfelt, with a touch of desperation.
