Chris Brown's "Problem With You" is a song about a man who is frustrated with the woman he is interested in. He is constantly getting phone calls from her, but she never comes over when he wants her to. The man is always ready for sex, but he gets played by this woman who never seems to make the right move.
The song begins with Chris letting the audience know that he is with a lot of girls who are into the party lifestyle, and he is living his best life with them. Chris tells us about his typical weekend and the type of girls that are allowed in his crib. Despite the party going on, Chris receives a phone call from the woman he's interested in. Chris explains his sexual frustration with her and her tendency to never come over when he needs her to. Chris highlights that he's aware the woman he's invested in isn't interested in sleeping with him and makes an appeal to her to stop wasting his time.
In the second verse, Chris receives a missed call from a "bad bitch," he slides into her DMs, but she's playing catfish. Chris tells her that she's only playing with his mind and that he's just looking for sex. The woman he's speaking to thinks of him as someone she can use to get what she wants but is not acting on any mutual feeling. Chris lets her know that if she's not interested in sex, then she's basically wasting his time.
