| 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
|
| Like how you are the best thing in my world
|
| And how I'm so proud to call you my girl
|
| 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'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 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
|
| 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’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 that it took so long to see
|
| But 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
|
| And for the embarrassment that she felt
|
| She's just a little young girl trying to have fun
|
| But daddy should 've 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 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 |
