Won't Trade

Lyrics

Welcome to All Sports, All Day
 Today on the program
 Trade talks continue in New York City
 But it doesn't disturb his productivity on the field
 (Now that I know what it is, boy)
 For your epitaph, niggas laugh, chicks steady gas your ass
 Siphoning out your cash, seein' the door, the flash
 While I stay enclosed, walkin' out in my clothes, she said
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 You motherfuckin' right, wantin' this shit every night
 Finish up, I hold her tight, wearin' feelings on my sleeve
 Even when I had to leave, cooler than the evening breeze
 Do you believe? (Gotta believe!)
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 The Division One leader, in the rebound with numerous shorties
 Off the post, goin' coast to coast, she on the hardwood
 Sub, I'm out the game, she sayin', "Nah, he good", I mean
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 For no amount of dough, franchise this man
 Give him all the things you can
 Think long-term plans, he be bringin' in the fans
 Front-page magazine, listen to this lady scream
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 'Cause she know what's better for her
 Toppin' in the peckin' order, fluid like the runnin' water
 Nicest nigga? Kinda, sorta
 When he screamin' just the slaughter, no matter the quarter
 I get it (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 The club-house king, battin' practice, slug and swing
 Gametime's anything, when I'm in, you're 'bout a minute
 Holdin' the bat, it's good as fact
 She's out the park, and comin' back, she sayin'
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 Everywhere you sit, you get a good view of the ballplayer and all
 And the famous hall inevitably will make a call
 Hangin' memorabilia from your walls
 This is why you can't trade me
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 When asked about the trade rumors
 He simply replied that he's just here to produce
 To put forth the best effort for his team
 (Now that I know what it is, boy)
 You can put your money on a sure thing
 Certain profits will they bring
 Ceremonies are the ringer, in the White House thing
 Clear your mantle, the trophies I bring, do you wanna trade?
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 'Cause in the end as a teammate
 You're lookin' for a back shoot, and go-to ball
 Leaves it all on the floor, always lookin' to score
 Pep-talks in the locker-room, this is why you sing this tune
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 And injuries can't make me sit out, I ball 'til you get out
 Hook off, no di-doubt, and all like get out
 I train for the pressure and come out fresher
 Equipped for the game, you know my name, it makes me better
 A cheer, for the whole team, let's go, for the whole thing
 The ballad that you're holding, MVP voting
 And I, represent the sentiment, you're emoting, as you say
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 The physical ability, with mental capability
 Legitimately places me inside of your vicinity
 And I ain't really seein' me vacatin' this community
 I'm stayin' here (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 I'm glad that you feel this way, here's where I like to play
 I need to hear it everyday, they cheer for me, say, "Ole"
 Wait a minute, "Andele"? I dunno, well, anyway
 (I wouldn't trade it for nothing)
 "There was a lot of talk, there was buzz and your name came up in the-
 In the trade rumors ugh, how seriously did you take that?"
 "Uh... uh, not serious at all really"
