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

well what was she doing in a club when she was underage anyway! not to mention flirting with guys older than her! Akon doesnt need to grow up all you idiots do! bet your not all so god dam perfect! I LUV U AKON!!! ***

what is so bad about the song anyway??? it takes a lot of courage to actually appologise in public and make a song about it! i think the song is brilliant and i love it, it is my favourite song! i havent seen the video but it couldnt possibly be that bad and if she thinks she’s SO GROWN UP to go into a 21 AND OVER CLUB than sh’e gotta expect things like this to happen! and if she didnt want it to happen she could’ve pushed him away but thats wot u get for being a ****!

Uhh, you some of you guys are ridiculous! He’s trying to own up for his mistakes.. I mean I think that takes a whole lot of courage, and just for that he should get credit. Yeah, he’s made mistakes, at least he’s owning up to them. I’m sure a lot of you people have made mistakes too. We all have we’re not all perfect, at least he’s good enough to own up to them like that.

that wasnt akon and wot u said is wrong i no but it is as bad as vanessa so we all make mistakes dont we that was just somthing she might of enjoyed it

AKON IS AN ABSOLUTE LEGAND. HIS MUSIC IS SICKKKKKK…BEST EVER SHUT UP U WASTE PEOPLE AND GET OVER IT. JEEEZZEE

Look all yous idiots crying over **** on this man it was a Over age club she shouldnt been let in **** her in her mouth with a rubber ****

kosovo je srpsko @ 02/17/2008 at 6:48 am

you losers below me that are saying **** about akon. i completely agree with him, the blame should not be on him and on the others he explains. what the **** was the stupid girl doing in a club, serves her right. and so what they had a dance nothing happened, was anyone hurt? no. Well done akon for coming out and apologising to gwen. would there be this much contreversy if she was above the required age? . love ur music keep doin wat u doin bro.
and btw these lyrics are wrong-
“For rising back out disgracing my name”- that is wrong.

i dont understand this.

at least apploziged like he shoudnt have done it but he apolizged and its a good song

he owned up for his mistakes now if can do that i will belive your negative comments about this song but he manned up and wrote a song about iT!

i love this song,
i hate the lyrics though.

my ex sent it to me, when we split up.
i cry when i listen to it.

espesialy the-
”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”
part.

Hey people quick being a f**kin b***h about akon. He’s my # 1 singer. If you guys DARE to talk BullS**t about Him you guys will feel pain from me. We all make mistakes even if it’s our 3rd 4th 5th so on it doesnt mean for you guys to talk smack in this . so y dont u guys tak a Freakin Hike down to Hell were u guys can do watever u guys want. Also God foregave Akon and he gave Akon alot of chances. So y dont u guys say ur own apologize to Him. I dont care if im not typing for the song i care about him. We all had something in life to regret or to think over for some times and Im his # 1 fan so dont u guys dare to lay a hand or watever pn this singer. HE does apologizes for wat has done to the girl and the girl foregave him. SO u guys should foregive AKon to he and i and you people all made our worst choice(s). But you no wat, there wil be a person to foregive u and all. I like Akon I have him all around my House and listen to al his music. The songs arnt just for us. He wanted to apologize to his X and to his girlfriend tht he had. The only way to not like him is to say: Akon I dont like ur music i dont like want did to tht girl but i forgive u to tht. Thts al u have to say.

Akon your my # 1 singer. I forgive you. We all make mistakes before. I made mistakes also but tht nvr gotten over me untill I heard the Song. It filled me with apologizes. I made mistakes in front of my girlfriend before and I had cry for over a day until I heard the song and shared it to all my friends and to my girlfriend. That song is really a heart taking. I cant get over that song I hav shared it with alot of people and it changed their lives as well. Thxz for tht song Il keep in touch with you sometimes. Bye!

You guys are all the same.

wow boy,
ur a good artist but ur act was wrong and ur apology is not sincere ,pls it should never repeat itself and if i might ask why don’t u sing gospel musics with that good voice?

everybody wanna knock him but i know a lot a people on here sayin **** buy his **** he ain’t a bad person niggaz don’t wanna get thrown off stage don’t talk ****…14 year old girls don’t wanna get brought on stage and humped ***** your daddy shoulda said you ain’t goin to the motha ****** show cause you 14…the **** a 14 girl doin at a akon show ***** can’t even buy the cd wit out somebody 17 coppin it for her

I have looked at the video over and over again trying to see where the young lady in question pushes Akon away…can’t see it….As someone from the Caribbean this kinda thing goes on all the time at clubs and concerts….Girls and guys alike aggressively fight to get up on stage to behave like this….That’s a part of ‘de culture’….EVERYONE is blaming Akon, but who’s blaming her parents, or the club….At age 21 if u wanna go out there and put urself out like that all the power to u….but at age 14 u need ur parents to set boundaries……Akon ought not to be blamed, if any of u have been to any Caribbean island u would know that’s acceptable dancing….does it look like it simulates agressive sex, sure it does but that’s what’s done there….Does that mean we condone rape (thin line between agresssive sex and rape, for it to have been rape she had to say NO!!)), no it does not but like I said, the young gir was not pushing him away….She may have thought since its not a Caribbean soca artiste that he would have been gentler, I don’t know but I’ve seen how some Africans get on in a session and all I can say is I see where we get it from….Ah well to each his own…I personally would never be up on stage grinding with anyone but I have friends who have done it and I know girls vie to be ‘honoured’ to be up on there shaking their stuff…

Awesome song……Lik always…..
Hats of………
I confes too with this song….
:)
