AKON - “SORRY, BLAME IT ON ME”
As life goes on I’m starting to learn more and more about responsibility
I realize everything I do is affecting the people around me
So I want to take this time out and apologize for things I have done
And things that have not occurred yet
And the things they don’t want to take responsibility for
I’m sorry for the times I left you home
I was on the road and you were alone
I’m sorry for the times that I had to go
I’m sorry for the fact that I did not know
That you were sitting home just wishing we
Could go back to when it was just you and me
I’m sorry for the times I would neglect
I’m sorry for the times I disrespect
I’m sorry for the wrong things that I’ve done
I’m sorry I’m not always there for my son
I’m sorry for the fact that I am not aware
That you can’t sleep at night when I am not there
Because I am in the streets like everyday
Sorry for the things that I did not say
Like how you are the best thing in my world
And how I am so proud to call you my girl
(Bridge)
I understand that there are some problems
And I am not too blind to know
All the pain you kept inside you
Even though you might not show
If I can apologize for being wrong
Then it’s just a shame on me
I’ll be the reason for your pain and you can put the blame on me
Chorus
You can put the blame on me (4x)
Said you can put the blame on me (3x)
You can put the blame on me
Sorry for the things that he put you through
And all the times you didn’t know what to do
Sorry that you had to go and sell those packs
Just trying to stay busy till you heard from Dad
And you would rather be home with all your kids
As one big family with love and bliss
And even though Pops treated us like kings
He got a second wife and you didn’t agree
He got up and left you there all alone
I’m sorry that you had to do it on your own
I’m sorry that I went and added to your grief
I’m sorry that your son was once a thief
I’m sorry that I grew up way too fast
I wish I would’ve listened and not be so bad
I’m sorry your life turned out this way
I’m sorry the FEDS came and took me away
(Bridge)
I’m sorry that it took so long to see
They were dead wrong trying to put it on me
I’m sorry that it took so long to speak
But I was on tour with Gwen Stefani
I’m sorry for the hand that she was dealt
For the embarrassment that she felt
Just a little young girl trying to have fun
Her daddy should never let her out that young
I’m sorry for Club Zen getting shut down
I hope they manage better next time around
How was I to know she was underage
Enter 21 you know the club they say
Why doesn’t anybody wanna take blame
For rising back out disgracing my name
I’m just a singer trying to entertain
Because I love my fans I’ll take that blame
Even though the blame’s on you (3x)
I’ll take that blame from you
And you can put that blame on me (2x)
You can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me

**** all that.. akon is the man and she was askin to get fucked on stage… if u watched the video her legs were around him and all, shes a hoe obviously. how was akon supposed to kno she was 15. its her faust if she didnt get fucked by akon she woulda got fucked by some other dude who is dirty and poor. that might of been the funniest thing ever and when he threw that white dude off stage, legendary.
When you’re drinking and partying, you’re not in the same state of mind to sitting on the computer arguing.
Akon simply wasn’t in his state of mind when he did what he did to that girl.
That fourteen year old ***** is to blame. Obviously, what do you expect to happen when an underaged teen goes into a 21+ club?
**** happens.
Verizon was the only smart sponsor, I can’t believe that others are still promoting this tour. He is only getting worse, are they waiting till he actually kills, or hurts someone, I hope they get sued when it happens.
everyone can fail but everyone don’t have the courage to apologize.i’ve really appreciate the thing u’ve done Akon.
Yo yall stupid as hell.Not one motherf**** has ever apologized for this kind of thing, at least he got balls to make a song and I LOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG.yall already kno that Club was supposed to check, dad supposed to kno,but all im gona say is that she prolly dreamt about f**** him anyway,so get over urself and cop his CD
Have we, the American people called for a nationwide investigation and/or the immediate impeachment of George Bush for INTENTIONALLY lying to the American people with regards to the “war” in Iraq. If were worried about money being wrongfully spent, let’s put an end to the tax dollars being spent in Iraq. Bush is the true definition of a thug!
Akon’s actions concerning the young lady from Trinidad were inappropriate BECAUSE she was under age. Was he supposed to card her when she jumped up on stage? No…that was the clubs responsibility. His actions were in no way, shape or form comparable to rape. Yes they were immature and irresponsible… that is unquestionable. He’s been penalized enough.
Why hasn’t anyone taken the blame for the lack of preventative measures enacted concerning Hurricane Katrina. Is that the kind of support we can expect from a government that we strive to abide by each and everyday in times of crisis and chaos? When we can no longer offer taxes should we expect to be labeled as “refugees” in our country! Why is it that can we rebuild a country overseas (Iraq) but we cannot manage to deliver food water and shelter to suffering Americans in New Orleans. Americans are cold blooded…I guess it’s just in your nature.
ok i think that people are being to hard on akon and that it was not all his fault i mean come on the girl was ******* 14 she knew what she was doin i think that this is the best akon song i,ve heard so far and i think that his actually trying to take the blame is not stupid come on his trying to say he,s sorry and these people are saying that the song is not about saying he,s sorry because it is and he,s trying to take the blame off other people to sure he sould,nt of thrown the boy off the stage but come on it,s not like he hurt him there was people all over that could catch him and i heard that he was having fun to and it,s not like people were mad at him come on u heard them all excited they did,nt care i dont think that boy did either and that girl new what she was doing to u go on myspace and look her up u can get her name off youtube you will see she,s not innocent so just give akon a break it,s not all his fault it,s the clubs to
The lyrics are fantastic.
I like Akon for being very honest in his songs.
Gwen Stefani might want to forgeve Akon now.
Thank you for sharing this story with me !
listen to the song he is sorry he knows he messed up he is talking about when he was a kid he had a bad child hood
“I’m sorry that I went and added to your grief
I’m sorry that your son was once a thief
I’m sorry that I grew up way too fast
I wish I would’ve listened and not be so bad
I’m sorry your life turned out this way
I’m sorry the FEDS came and took me away”
he should not have said the blame is on you but it is kinda our fault none of those kids had to go up on stage or to the club a 14 year old girl should not be looking like that and she probaly knew where she was going if it said 21 and older she should have backed out and said i’m only 14 plus do they not no she was 14 i mean come on that one is kinda on the club even if your with akon pairs hilton is going to jail for what she did akon was much bigger though and should have been handle whith it is because we didn’t do anything he kept doing it akon could really be sorry and we should give him another chance
i like this song but he should of never done that to the girl even he really didnt opalogize i like his music and the songs he has written so i think this is a good song.
akon i love you, ur write the hole thing should have not been blamed on u… i love u babe always keep a smile on ur face
akon its not your falt you didnt knw how old she was u thought she was 21 she fibed her falt not yours!so write me back i have a question
p.s im just a girl that wasnt to sing
THE TIME PEOPLE BLAME PEOPLE FOR THEIR MISTAKE THAT STAND UP AND BE A BIGGER MAN
you guys are all ******* retarded. it is that ******* fault. shes like 14 and going to an over 21 club, where people get fucked, and things like that happen. if she didnt want that **** to happen, she shouldnt have gone. akon apoligizes in his song, but he says its NOT fair he gets blamed for everything when her parents didnt know where she was, she was illegally at a club, andddd he fucked up. get over it
i like this song, akon is amazing
all entertainers make mistakes, like normal people
i dont see any of you ******* complaining about anything that someone not famous has done. everyone ***** up, so leave akon alone k thanks
Akon deserves our acceceptance for his apology. Everyone has made mistakes in their life. Akon made a few mistakes but at least he has the guts to write and record a song to apologize for his behaviour. If your angry at Akon, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself why you didn’t write a song about your mistakes. What Akon did takes guts, so don’t be angry. On top of it all, i don’t see anyone else writing songs about their mistakes. Akon is my boy, so think back into your younger years at the mistakes you’ve made and then think about the courage it took for Akon to wriote that song while he was being chased by the feds.
Sebastian Godbout
Wow yall are such morons…..He made a mistake EVERYONE makes mistakes god i mean look at every …1:She shouldnt of been in the club underage?
2:yall talkin about that kid? wow he asked for it what a moron for coming to hes concert and disrespecting him what a moron…but other then that this song says it all

KKKK
“For rising back out” I guess it does sound like VERIZON BACKED OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“I’m sorry that it took so long to see
They were dead wrong trying to put it on me
I’m sorry that it took so long to speak
But I was on tour with Gwen Stefani
I’m sorry for the hand that she was dealt
For the embarrassment that she felt
Just a little young girl trying to have fun
Her daddy should never let her out that young
I’m sorry for Club Zen getting shut down
I hope they manage better next time around
How was I to know she was underage
Enter 21 you know the club they say
Why doesn’t anybody wanna take blame
For rising back out disgracing my name
I’m just a singer trying to entertain
Because I love my fans I’ll take that blame
Even though the blame’s on you (3x)
I’ll take that blame from you”
when he says even though the blame’s on you i think he is talking only about the club the blame was on us the club shouldn’t have let her through that is not akons fault its the clubs so i think what he is saying is even though the club let her through and he messed up with her he will take the blame because the blame is not on him for the club
Don’t you think a person could tell from a 14 and 21 serously. Even if she wore thos clothes I think you could tell. If you saw the vidio she enjoyed well I think. And that sooo wasn’t rape. Some of you people say Akon should be sued whatever. But really if the girl wasn’t there none of this would have happened.
well i think dat akon shouldnt have done dat to dat girl and the song mite catch on but it sounds so FAKE and gwen should of kicked him out!!!!!!!!!!!!! well i hope he really means it bcuz like almost half of the world hates him!
well yeah it me again that stupid gurl should not even be at that club on the other hand akon shouldnt have done that 2 any body like i said in ma last post that song sounds f.a.k.e well i kno all ma gurlz iz reading dia ma i miss ya’ll
here are the correct lyrics
As life goes on, I’m starting to learn more and more about responsibility. And I realize that everything I do is affecting the people around me. So I want to take this time out to apologize for things that I’ve done, things that haven’t occurred yet, and things that they don’t want to take responsibility for.
I’m sorry for the times that I left you home
I was on the road and you were alone
I’m sorry for the times that I had to go
I’m sorry for the fact that I did not know
That you were sitting home just wishing we
Could go back to when it was just you and me
I’m sorry for the times I would neglect
I’m sorry for the times I disrespect
I’m sorry for the wrong things that I’ve done
I’m sorry I’m not always there for my sons
I’m sorry for the fact that I’m not aware
That you can’t sleep at night when I am not there
Because I’m in the streets like everyday
I’m sorry for the things that I did not say
And how you are the best thing in my world
And how I’m so proud to call you my girl
Chrous:
I understand that there’s some problems
And I’m not too blind to know
All the pain you kept inside you
Even though you might not show
If I can’t apologize for being wrong
Then it’s just a shame on me
(I’d be the reason for your pain) or (I’ll be the reason for your pain)
And you can put the blame on me
you can put the blame on me
you can put the blame on me
you can put the blame on me
you can put the blame on me
said, you can put the blame on me
said, you can put the blame on me
said, you can put the blame on me
you can put the blame on me
I’m sorry for the things that he put you through
And all the times you didn’t know what to do
I’m sorry that you had to go and sell those bags
Just trying to stay busy until you heard from Dad
When you would rather be home with all your kids
As one big family with love and bliss
And even though pops treated us like kings
He got a second wife and you didn’t agree
He got up and left you there all alone
I’m sorry that you had to do it on your own
I’m sorry that I went and added to your grief
I’m sorry that your son was once a thief
I’m sorry that I grew up way to fast

I’m sorry that it took so long to see
What they did wrong, trying to put it on me

She’s just a little young girl tryin to have fun

How was I to know she was underage
In a 21 and older club they say
Why doesn’t anybody want to take blame
Verizon backed out, disgracing my name
I’m just a singer trying to entertain
Because I love my fans, I’ll take that blame
Even though the blame’s on you
Even though the blame’s on you
Even though the blame’s on you
I’ll take that blame from you
And you can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me
you can put that blame on me
you can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me
And you can put that blame on me
Akon lost his sponsership with Verizon after the humping incident. I guess he didn’t learn enough to avoid throwing that boy off of the stage though.

whether or not he did kno if that girl was underage or not doesnt matter. I mean ok he made a mistake. But look at him. He made it and you people have not. He is a successful man. It is not me or your job to pass judgment on him..so this whole thing is stupid. Why dont you guys just listen to the damn song…if u dont lik the lyrics and him then dont listen. But the worst and shallowest thing a person can do is judge another. When u kno that you have done things that were below the belt. And that you have messed up. And you dont kno where he is coming from. So listen and shut up.
