I'll Trade (A Million Bucks)

About I'll Trade (A Million Bucks)

"I'll Trade (A Million Bucks)" is the lead single by the R&B singer Keith Sweat featuring former label-mate Lil' Mo from Sweat's seventh album, Didn't See Me Coming (2000). The song was solely written by Mo and featured production by Sweat, Barry Salter and Jules Bartholomew. An autotuned remix produced by Walter "Mucho" Scott was released to vinyl pressings and appeared on Sweat's album as an interlude in the form of a snippet. A music video for the single was directed by J. Jesses Smith and premiered on BET in late September 2000. In 2005, the song served as a sample for R&B singer Jhené Aiko's song, "Right Here," from the Disney Channel soundtrack, The Proud Family (2005).  more »

[Intro - Lil' Mo (Keith)]
(Mmm) People think it's easy out here 
You know, they see us in the fancy cars 
Fly clothes (oh yes they do) 
A little bling to wear, nahmean? 
Well, it's not easy 
You have all that, ain't got nobody to share it with 
(Oh no) Been tryin' to find somebody, it's crazy (oh no) 

[Keith] 
If I go to the club 
They just want to take me home 
Just tryin' to have a good time 
Just want to get my drink on 
If I go to the mall 
They come in the store 
I'm just tryin' to chill 
Said I'm just tryin' to chill 

[Lil' Mo (Keith)]
I don't know if they think 
This is the glamorous life (oh yes they do) 
They want to share the life with me (yeah, yeah, yeah) 
But what's a girl who gave all of her up in the lights (oh, lights) 
It won't lead to anything (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

[Keith and Lil' Mo] 
I'll trade a million bucks 
For someone's love who don't come with a price 
I'll trade in all my cars 
For someone who will love me for life 

They can take away my platinum plaques 
That fame and fortune, don't mean a thing 
I'll trade a lifetime just to find someone 
Who will love me just for me 

[Lil' Mo] 
Gotta change my phone 
'cause they call my crib 
Just want some privacy 
Just tryin' to live 
If I'd have known 
It woulda been this way 
Woulda found a man a long time ago 

Don't get me wrong 
I'm still young and I'm not hating but 
It's not as easy as it seems (whoa oh) 
'cause I'm not out here looking for a hit and run 
I want someone who can love me for me 

[Keith and Lil' Mo] 
I'll trade a million bucks 
For someone's love who don't come with a price 
I'll trade in all my cars 
For someone who will love me for life 

They can take away my platinum plaques 
That fame and fortune, don't mean a thing 
I'll trade a lifetime just to find someone 
Who will love me just for me 

[Keith and Lil' Mo] 
I know in love, sometimes you lose 
Sometimes it's just not right 
And sometimes you win 
But even then 
You gotta go through with it 
Gotta go through with it 

That's why I will, will find 
Someone to share the same thoughts as me 
I know they are there 
I know they're somewhere 
I'll do anything 

[Keith and Lil' Mo] 
I'll trade a million bucks 
For someone's love who don't come with a price 
I'll trade in all my cars 
For someone who will love me for life 

They can take away my platinum plaques 
That fame and fortune, don't mean a thing 
I'll trade a lifetime just to find someone 
Who will love me just for me
