Lyrics for Ariana Grande feat. Iggy Azalea – Problem
[Ariana Grande – Verse 1:]
Baby, even though I hate ya
I wanna love ya
I want you
And even though I can’t forgive ya
I really want to
I want you
Tell me, tell me baby
Why did you leave me
Cause even though I shouldn’t want it
I gotta have it
I want youHead in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser
And realize that I’ve got..[Big Sean – Hook:]
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problemI know you’re never gonna wake up
I gotta give up
But it’s you
Know I shouldn’t never call back
Or let you come back
But it’s you
Every time you touch me
And say you love me
I get a little bit breathless
I shouldn’t want it
But it’s youHead in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser
And realize that I’ve got..[Big Sean – Hook:]
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem[Iggy Azalea]
It’s Iggy Iggz
What you got?Smart money bettin’ I’ll be better off without you
In no time I’ll be forgettin’ all about you
You sayin’ that you know
But I really really doubt you
Understand my life is easy
When I ain’t around youIggy Iggy
Too biggie to be here stressing’
I’m thinkin’ I love the thought of you
More than I love your presence
And the best thing now
Is probably for you to exit
I let you go
Let you back
I finally learned my lesson
No half-stepping
Either you want it or you just playin’
I’m listening to you knowing
I can’t believe what you’re sayin’
There’s a million you’s baby boy
So don’t be dumb
I got 99 problems
But you won’t be one
WhatOne less, one less problem
One less, one less problemHead in the clouds
Got no weight on my shoulders
I should be wiser
And realize that I’ve got..[Big Sean – Hook:]
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
One less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less problem without ya
I got one less, one less problem
