Como Eu Quero

In 'Como Eu Quero,' Leoni delves into the complexities of desire and transformation within a relationship. The lyrics open with a command to the partner to be silent and serious, suggesting a desire for authenticity and depth. The mention of 'tramas do sucesso' (plots of success) and 'solos de guitarra' (guitar solos) indicates that superficial displays of talent or charm are insufficient to win the narrator's affection. Instead, the narrator seeks a genuine connection, emphasizing the need for the partner to meet their emotional and intellectual standards.

The chorus, 'Uh, eu quero você, como eu quero' (I want you, the way I want), underscores the narrator's insistence on a specific kind of relationship. This desire is not just for the partner's presence but for them to meet certain expectations. The lyrics 'Vou transformar o seu rascunho em arte final' (I'll turn your draft into a final artwork) highlight the narrator's intention to mold and improve their partner, suggesting a dynamic where one person seeks to change the other to fit their ideal.

The song also touches on themes of dependency and self-improvement. The lines 'Longe do meu domínio, cê vai de mal a pior' (Away from my control, you'll go from bad to worse) and 'Vem que eu te ensino como ser bem melhor' (Come, I'll teach you how to be much better) imply that the narrator believes their partner needs their guidance to thrive. This dynamic can be seen as both nurturing and controlling, reflecting the complexities of relationships where one person assumes a dominant role in shaping the other's identity.
