“What I Want” is one of the more lighthearted tracks on The Disconnect album. While some may immediately write it off as being too repetitive, Diabolic manages to pull off some slick punchlines while utilizing anaphora throughout the entirety of the song.
[Intro]
Hahahaha!
They tell me I don't get personal enough
Luckily I'm drunk
Let's have a little fun, fuck it
[Verse]
I like to lay pipe, I like Pabst Blue Ribbon
I like girls wearin' glasses, I like tattooed women
I like, shots of Jack until the back room's spinning
I like shitty soundmen, when a wack dude's spittin'
I like, chicks who strip just to stack tuition
I like heading upstate, eatin' mad 'shrooms, trippin'
I like Wu-Tang, Gang Starr, Black Moon, listen
I like Hendrix, Marley, I like jazz musicians
I like Non Phixion, Brooklyn [❓❓]
I like to tour the west, I like the fan support I get
I like, street money, I like getting corporate checks
I like, celebrating life instead of mourning death
I like, punching faces, I like seeing other places
I like the odds against me, I like being underrated
I like, the nights off when Pen and me get fucking wasted
I like how potent all the weed I puff with Swave is
I like crushing stages, I like 40's and blunts
I like knowing bartenders (Homie pour me some rum!)
I like being antisocial, back up off of me son
I like euthanasia, I like the work Kevorkian has done
I like shorties with buns, I like triple D's and sex
I like, saying shit that's not politically correct
I like, making fun of rappers in a sequin dress
I like that YouTube video where Lil B gets decked
I like, artists saying fuck an industry exec'
I like hearing (Rugged Man!) used to shit on people's desks
I like the underground, I like being independent
I like being superficial, I like being introspective
I like the clique I rep, and the crews that I've formed
I like ignorance, I like dropping jewels in my songs
I like, that this track's helping you and I bond
But most of all I really like to do what I want, come on
[Outro]
