Kelvyn Colt: “I wrote the song in my dorm room, after my first year in England. At the time I couldn’t cover my fees anymore, was alone most of the time or working, hardly having time for music, even though that was what I came for.

[Verse 1]
Can you tell me?
Do you want me?
If you warned me
Can I tell you?
I think about you
I still think about you
You playing hide and seek
But I'll come and find you
Can I come by, boo?
I will go fly to be
Right there beside you
Must I remind you
To who you belong
I did no wrong
Sorry if this comes of strong
I need a moment alone
[Hook]
'Cause I traded for you
I traded for you
I did it for you
I traded for you
(Did it for you)
[Verse 2]
Men like us, we were never meant to make it
Outside bodegas freestyled, it's basic
Suga (boy) gone drop it
Keith gone cop it
Sion singing for you girl
Malik gone pop it
Kupp won't doubt it
Elijah going wild now
If you ain't a stand up guy better bow down
Right now
Worth a couple grands of investment
I'm a walking asset
Talking that shit, need a vest man
Back then before I booked my flight abroad
Before I got my new job up at Michael Kors
Sitting in my basement
Wondering what the mic would cost
How it never phased me
When the lights was off
Fight's paid off, it's Abbey Road Studio
And Frank Ocean doing session just a room below
But who would guess that we would ever move these rows
Proof that progress is coming soon but slow
[Hook]
I traded for you
I traded for you
I did it for you
I traded for you
