Integrating Acceleration Data Matlab

Hi there,
I have the acceleration vs. time data that is attached. When I plot it, I get the following:
I want to integrate it to get the Velocity vs. Time graph but I do not know how to do this. I have tried trapz() but it only gives some weird linear graph.
If someone could let me know how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Try
v = cumtrapz(X2(:,1),X2(:,2));
plot(X2(:,1),v)

Instead of
figure
plot(X2)
title('Acceleration (m/s^2) vs. Time (ms)')
xlabel('Time (ms)')
ylabel('Acceleration (m/s^2)')
use
figure
plot(t,accn)
title('Acceleration (m/s^2) vs. Time (ms)')
xlabel('Time (ms)')
ylabel('Acceleration (m/s^2)')
Similarly, I would use
plot(t,vel)
and
plot(t,dis)
for clarity.
