I Want
DAX Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

After they hurt you the first time, leave
(Ay, this a Trademark production)
'Cause if they'll do it once
They'll do it again (Stillsanexile)

Never thought you'd leave, never thought it would end (yeah, uh)
Look at all the pain that you caused me
Fuck it, I don't want another sorry, uh
S-sorry
I never thought this shit would end, end
And I don't want another sorry
Sorry, you're not sorry
I never thought this shit would end
End (yo, uh)

Two wrongs don't make a right
I turned left
Now you mad I don't pick up
I don't return texts
Like I'm supposed to, let it slide, what, and just forget
That you destroyed everything we had, what
Just for sex, fuck that
I'm angry, I'm depressed and I'm mad
Reminiscing over days, living life in the past (why?)
How'd you do that shit? Was I really that bad? (Crazy)
I even let you stay, huh
I even let you meet my dad
I don't know where we go
But I know that you're not for me, you're not for me
Ay yo, ay yo

Never thought you'd leave, never thought it would end (yeah, uh)
Look at all the pain that you caused me
Fuck it, I don't want another sorry, uh
S-sorry
I never thought this shit would end, end
And I don't want another sorry
Sorry, you're not sorry
I never thought this shit would end
End (yeah)

I'm sorry, it was a mistake
Every fucking day another heartbreak
I can't take this pain, how much my heart aches
There won't be nothing left
Said you not sorry, not sorry either
Told you I would love you to the moon and to the ether
She think that I'm stupid and I peeped her
Told her I'll move on by myself, I need to leave her, yeah (yeah)

Never thought you'd leave, never thought it would end (yeah, uh)
Look at all the pain that you caused me (yeah)
Fuck it, I don't want another sorry, uh
S-sorry
I never thought this shit would end, end
And I don't want another sorry
Sorry, you're not sorry




I never thought this shit would end
End

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DAX's song "I Want" express the pain of a once-loving relationship that has ended due to the actions of the other person involved. The song begins with the message that if someone hurts you once, they will most likely do it again. The singer is grappling with the fact that they never imagined this person would leave and that they are experiencing constant pain at their hands. The use of the word "sorry" is repeated throughout the song, with the singer feeling frustrated that apologies can't change what has happened.


The second verse reveals a sense of anger and betrayal on the part of the singer. They are hurt by the other person's actions and can't understand why they would destroy what they had for something as insignificant as sex. They are left feeling depressed and nostalgic, looking back at better days and trying to understand where things went wrong. In the chorus, the singer makes it clear that they don't want any more apologies and that the other person is not sorry - they can't fix what has already been done.

[Intro]
I need a lot of things
At least I think I do
(Man)

[Chorus]
I need someone to call my own
Heart face emojis all in my phone
Someone who cares, and someone who'll listen
That I can talk to and I can live with
I need a house somewhere on a beach
A six figure job that pays every week
Need to see a dentist, whiten my teeth
I wish they were laundry, I would use bleach
I need a chain to make me feel rich
Rolex watch with some grills that fit
Balmain jeans for my self-esteem, cause I need to live what I always dreamed
My life must look good on IG, cause I need everyone to believe
That I'm some famous kid from OT
I don't really care if that is not me

[Verse 1]
I, I need a lot of things...well actually probably not
Cause the rich still want money, if they can't be happy, I think I'ma give it to God
From the bottom to top
I think that I need to change, and focus on things that I have
Instead of chasing the money, and women, and fame
I know I'm not perfect
But not wrong for wanting the better,.
But I can't let it change me, cause life is a teacher and oh man she a test ya
With all of societies pressures
I swear it won't go to my head
I started of small and they slept, so I shook up the game now they out of their beds
I can tell they just woke up, cause some still won't answer my call`
I tell them I rap and their shocked, cause the boy that they knew was committed to ball
I tell them no longer a boy
The one that you knew is a man
And the path that I'm on was just given, it wasn't my choice it's according to plan

[Chorus]
I need someone to call my own
Heart face emojis all in my phone
Someone who cares, and someone who'll listen
That I can talk to and I can live with
I need a house somewhere on a beach
A six figure job that pays every week
Need to see a dentist, whiten my teeth
I wish they were laundry, I would use bleach
I need a chain to make me feel rich
Rolex watch with some grills that fit
Balmain jeans for my self-esteem, cause I need to live what I always dreamed
My life must look good on IG, cause I need everyone to believe
That I'm some famous kid from OT
I don't really care if that is not me

[Verse 2]
You need a lot of things
Well actually probably want
You write your own story in pencil not pen
If it's bad man you changing the font
Did you hear what I said?
The worlds got it stuck in our heads
We think that we need when we don't
It's no wonder that most of us end up mislead

[Bridge]
I need someone to call my own
Heart face emojis all in my phone
Someone who cares, and someone who'll listen
That I can talk to and I can live with
I need a house somewhere on a beach
A six figure job that pays every week
Need to see a dentist, whiten my teeth
I wish they were laundry, I would use bleach

[Verse 3]
I need a
Wait
I don't need all those things
And neither do you
Just focus on love and the fam and if all that shit comes, it's ok man it's cool
I'm not saying it's bad
Matter fact you should probably enjoy
Just don't let it drive you cause if that's your purpose, I promise you'll end up destroyed
Hold up
Breathe for a second
Let me break it down so you can understand what you need is indeed to believe
The material things are not the key to define as a man
So how do we change
Well we got to move on
So change up the hook
Take the word need
And turn it into a want

[Chorus]
I want someone to call my own
Heart face emojis all in my phone
Someone who cares, and someone who'll listen
That I can talk to and I can live with
I want a house somewhere on a beach
A six figure job that pays every week
Want to see a dentist, whiten my teeth
I wish they were laundry, I would use bleach
I want a chain to make me feel rich
A Rolex watch with some grills that fit
Balmain jeans for my self-esteem, cause I want to live what I always dreamed
My life will look good on IG, cause I want everyone to believe
That I'm some famous kid from OT
This song is my promise that'll be me

[Outro]
I promise
No I really do though
