[00:00.00]Akon-Sorry, Blame It On Me
[00:01.63]
[00:02.32]As life goes on
[00:04.86]I'm starting to learn more and more about responsibility
[00:08.14]And I realize that everything I do is affecting the people around me
[00:12.47]So I want to take this time out
[00:14.51]to apologize for things that I've done
[00:16.98]things that haven't occurred yet
[00:18.94]and things that they don't want to take responsibility for
[00:21.13]
[00:23.05]I'm sorry for the times that I left you home
[00:25.78]I was on the road and you were alone
[00:28.46]I'm sorry for the times that I had to go
[00:31.19]I'm sorry for the fact that I did not know
[00:33.64]
[00:33.82]That you were sitting home just wishing we
[00:36.70]Could go back to when it was just you and me
[00:39.43]I'm sorry for the times I would neglect
[00:42.13]I'm sorry for the times I disrespect
[00:44.46]
[00:44.62]I'm sorry for the wrong things that I've done
[00:47.58]I'm sorry I'm not always there for my sons
[00:50.32]I'm sorry for the fact that I'm not aware
[00:53.03]That you can't sleep at night when I am not there
[00:55.38]
[00:55.60]Because I'm in the streets like everyday
[00:58.53]I'm sorry for the things that I did not say
[01:01.21]Like how you are the best thing in my world
[01:03.99]And how I'm so proud to call you my girl
[01:06.49]
[01:07.01]I understand that there's some problems
[01:09.80]And I'm not too blind to know
[01:12.43]All the pain you kept inside you
[01:15.24]Even though you might not show
[01:17.21]
[01:17.43]If I can't apologize for being wrong
[01:20.70]Then it's just a shame on me
[01:23.57]I'll be the reason for your pain
[01:26.29]And you can put the blame on me
[01:28.74]
[01:29.00]You can put the blame on me
[01:31.67]You can put the blame on me

[01:58.17]Just trying to stay busy until you heard from dad
[02:00.36]
[02:00.93]When you would rather be home with all your kids
[02:03.67]As one big family with love and bliss
[02:06.36]And even though pops treated us like kings
[02:09.07]He got a second wife and you didn't agree
[02:11.28]
[02:11.90]He got up and left you there all alone
[02:14.71]I'm sorry that you had to do it on your own
[02:17.17]I'm sorry that I went and added to your grief

[03:47.36]In a 21 and older club they say
[03:49.62]
[03:49.95]Why doesn't anybody want to take blame
