Drake Bell – Do What You Want Lyrics 15 years ago
I think you guys are wrong. I think this song is abut Drake being pissed off about some girl who made him pissed, like cheated on him at a party (which would make sense because of the talk of partying in the song) and he's telling her to get lost and do whatever she wants because he's out of her life. "Do what you wanna do (cheat, get drunk, fool around, go to jail, etc), be what you wanna be (a mean person without a relationship, unlike him who doesnt quit on relationships, throw his hands up in the air, and parties all the time, as it references in "But I can say I'm not a quitter), live how you wanna live (screw your life up while I'm moving on and being mature about life), if you wanna be free then you're gonna be free (you want to be single? then fine, because I'm leaving"." Another piece of evidence is at the end, when the answering machine says "Please hold for a new important message." so it could be like a call to his newly ex-gf as he breaks up with her, and if you listen to the song, it could just as easily be angry as happy. Try listening to it when you're mad.
