Song 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 
And 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'm not there 
Because I'm in the streets like everyday 
I'm 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't 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
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 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 that your life turned out this way 
I’m sorry that the feds came and took me away 

(Bridge) 
I understand that there are some problems 
And I am not too blind to look 
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’ll be the reason for your pain 
And you can put the blame on me 

(Chorus) 
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 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 have 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 
In a 21 and older club they say 
Why doesn’t anybody wanna take blame 
Verizon 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
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 
And you can put that blame on me 

(Instrumentals) 

And you can put that blame on me 

And you can put that blame on me 

(Fade)

Akon's song is very well written and addresses social issues whether intentionally or unintentionally. People should just give the guy a break. He's really trying. I find the song a lovely song in all aspects. Keep it up Akon!!

i like that song,because Akon sent it out in the time as the
real time,i mean,the end of year is the time to apologieze
about everything bad i ever did at this year,and actually the song
is about everyone who want to get a connection to the words.
that words make the feel like i'm going out of the jail,excetly like that.
thank you,Akon,for being a positive messege from that wonderful song,
and i hope with everyone,who agree with what i say,that all that things
are not going to happen again.

The song has really great lyrics, some of which can relate to many different things and the beat gives the song rhythm but does not take the attention away from the lyrics and vocals.

"Sorry Gwen Stefani" would have been nice.
He did lose her, her american tour sponsors and thus millions of dollars.

The song sounds very melancholic and genuine. I love it, and despite his actions, at least he is attempting to give some amount of modesty.
