Problems - Ludacris/CeeLo Green

They say Luda would you rather have the money or the fame

I say they try to tell em that it all just depends

Cause every time I make a lil more money

I seem to be losing more of my friends

So I'd give it all up to repeat life over

And they'd say dude is a fool

I can't trust another motherf**ker living in this world

And this really got me losing my cool

What would you'd do if you were in my situation

And the minute everyone you ever loved to say you looked up

You drink your pain to the bottom of a bottle

And the conjure would have you f**ked up

So I'm looking for love in all the wrong places

Pop pills drink liquor by the cases

Get high make a woman get low

In the strip club looking for familiar faces

People know me on a first name basis

But all they ever really want is my cash

Let me borrow just a couple hundred dollars

And you know that I'm a pay you back my a**

This world so superficial

This world done lost my trust

They say Ludacris you've changing

But I really don't give a f**k

What the hell am I suppose to think

What the hell am I suppose to do

I'm hearing that the devil's in disguise

And I'm hearing that the ni**a look just like you

They know I walk throw the valley of the shadow of death

I don't go astray

And I get down on my knees and pray and I say

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away away away

I wish my problems would go away away away

Doc said I need to change my diet cause I'm really not eating right

Mama said I need some peace and quiet cause I'm really not sleeping right

What's the use of having all the money

And the power in the world if I can't abuse it

Seems like the only thing that's keeping me together is my music

If it wasn't for that I think I would lose it

If it wasn't for that I would go crazy

When nobody went good on they word

In the industry they make you feel like f**k you pay me

Cause I gotta feed family some of the same ones that abandoned me

That still looking for a hand out

Til you found out there ain't sh*t ya handed me

Hah still mad at me

But I'm trying to be the man I plan to be

But can't do it if you calling me for dumb sh*t

Thinking I'm innocent I'm a plea insanity

Too many distractions and it feels like everyday

So I get down on my knees and pray and I say

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away away away

I wish my problems would go away away away

I finally made it to the top of the CEO Position

But when things don't go their way these artists got all these suspicions

So the w**d keep me at peace and I think I need an intervention

Who the f**k put me in charge of making all of these decisions

My position got me stressing like it never did before

Not to mention my best friend drowned and death was knocking at his door

And it seems like someone in my family is passing away like every day

So I just look up to the sky

And get down on my knees and pray and I say

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away

Okay okay okay I wish my problems would go away away away

I wish my problems would go away away away
