There's just so much emotion emanating from these lyrics. You've got to be real mature to write these lyrics. Love what I'm hearing even after all these years.
My dad passed away yesterday and now I'm making a playlist with all the songs he loved and I remember him by. This is one of them. Thank you dad for showing me the greatest artists of all times. Loved, missed and never forgotten 🤘🔥❤
@@resone3645 what a fucking legend. Colin Kaepernick and Lebron James should learn from him, actually being on the frontline rather than being in their multimillionaire gated white people community
Mad respect to Akon for this jam and what he did in regards to the incident or incidents that led him to write this in the first place. It takes real maturity and humility to own up to a mistake you made and all consequences that come from it, that’s true. It takes even more to fully and willingly accept consequences for something you are not at all at fault for. Huge respect right there
I always remember listening to some of his songs when I was a kid and thought nothing just like the beat and voice and now I realized the real meaning of his song. Respect !
This song hits me very hard. I put myself in this situation. And I'm happy that these good and talented artists bring out something that deeply describes our daily stories. End of 2022, n I'm still listening.
Underrated song which needs to be played on radios. Love Akon and the songs he's made have been so good to listen to. Thank you legend. Hope this quarantine ends asap. Stay strong everyone who is suffering with MH, depression, abuse and violence during this pandemic, don't be afraid to speak up and talk.
How was i to know she was underage, in a 21 and older club they say... Like he just had some bad luck right there cuz i wouldn't mind if Akon grinded on me 😘
Dakota Ferguson No i was younger when it came out i had no idea behind the meaning i just knew sonically it sounded good now i know what he is saying but i don't know the background behind it too much
Bobby Manna well he was preforming at a place and a few underage girls snuck in and he had sex on the stage with one of them (not knowing she was underage) that's why he's saying "Daddy should've never let her out that young." And "Sorry about the club getting shut down. Maybe they'll manage better next time around, how I was I to know she was underage no one under 21 they say."
+MetalAggression He didn't know he was messing with a young girl. Who would check someone's age when their to busy having fun and drinking. It's not his fault the bouncers were stupid and didn't check or the girl for using a fake ID. He made the song because he was actually sorry not to "save his ass".
Just for those who did not know why he wrote this song in the first place, here is the reason. It happened because of 1 incident. And this incident was when Akon was captured, on video, whining with an underaged girl on stage. His actions caused a monumental backlash which he did, in a way, actually take the blame for. But the major repercussion of this action was that Verizon, a powerful telecommunications’ company, decided to pull its sponsorship away from Gwen Stefani’s The Sweet Escape Tour. This was because Akon was one of her main opening acts. So he apologizes in the song for causing her this misfortune. However, he defends himself by pointing out that both the club and the girl’s family, not himself, were responsible for her being in such an adult venue. Or simply put, his defense is that he didn’t know she was that young. Then he goes on to take a jab at Verizon, basically accusing them of unjustifiably ‘disgracing his name’. But at the end of day since he ‘loves his fans’ he’ll play the role of the martyr, if you will, and “take that blame”. Indeed he concludes the song by flipping the chorus, stating outrightly that this time around he’s accepting the blame even though he knows it’s not his fault. However, if this incident did not occured, this masterpice will not be created. Dont forget, beautiful sunsets needs cloudy skies.
This song makes me cry and feel so emotional, makes me wanna say sorry for even all the things I havnt done wrong Anyone who feel same way ??like August 2020
"Sorry" is a not a word of cowardice but a word of offering peace for those who make mistakes for those they done wrong and an oath never to commit the same again😔🙏
I was a kid listening to this through a tough time when i blamed myself for everything that was going on. I carried that burden for years but now that i'm older i can listen to this with light shoulders knowing that it wasn't my fault. There was no-one to blame.
I was convicted 2017 i came out 2021 and my WIFE my two kids still used to write me letter, when i came out she took me out and she played this song i cried and i will love her forever 😭😭😭😭
People could learn how to take accountability from this man. So many people will go through life trying so hard to be right, and will never admit all the wrong they have done. So sad.
Hey you! Yeah you the one who is reading this, you have great music taste and a kind soul for picking this song. Its human nature to be scared of the outcomes that you have done. But the past is the past and you must pave the way forward even if it takes a few trips going back to fix a few bumps and scratches but don't lose sight of the light ahead. For I love the human race and I embrace the fact that I'm not perfect. And if you really need to. You can put the blame on me.

Back in days i use to hate this song, it's kinda awkward and boring for a 5 year old me. But now that i'm turning 18, i just realise the real message of this song. This song gives real emotions and it truly hurts because the lyrics is too emotional and realistic. Man akon is the best, he's a legend for writing wonderful music. Godbless you man!
Sitting here not even good enough for a goodbye. Trying to think of a reason. Any reason. To keep going. To wake up tomorrow. No one would notice anyway. Theres no one. My phone hasnt rung in almost 2 months. My facebook is silent. Dont forget to tell the ones you care for that you love them. Sont let them end uo with no ine like me. This is no exaggeration. There is not one person in my life. If i walk into the woods and didnt come out not a single person would ever know. No one would even wonder where i went.
The memories are hitting me. I remember listening to this song on the radio in the car and just staring out the window thinking about life. Lately, I realized I’m getting older. The world seems to get lonely all around me.
The only dude who could actually come back from something like this. Its a show of humility. Nothing short of Respectful and admirable. Besides who can hate this guy he gave us all those memories 😭😭
GodZillaKing 2268 never give up keep your head up and live your dreams and live your life don’t lesson to what people say about you or anything u do u and be yourself u never give u pick yourself up u push forward u move on and u over come okey just because am dealing with depression to so never give up there people in the world that care and that need you stay strong 💯👍

Salute to both these legends Clinton Sparks for writing such a masterpiece and Akon for delivering the unheard melodies so we could also be a part of it
My dads fav song before he died i miss him everyday and this singer is one of his favorite singers besides creed 3 doors down and much more others i think about him everytime i listen to this song :(
Listening to this lyrics giving me goosebumps all over. At first it was the beats I like. But now I've grown up listening to it all over again, I'm so loving the lyrics. Akon did a good job on writing the song
We old... But we all come back to this song. Chin up kings and queens, I am having a bad time in life and if you are here chances are you are too. Just keep pushing because that's what I am doing...
This is my jam during mg high school life, and now it's 2022, I'm already married and I can now fully understand the message of this song. This is so precious. 💕
I wanna dedicate this to my ex. I'm sorry that I wasn't the man of your dreams. I'm sorry that I couldn't be there with you every waking second. I'm sorry that I have severe depression and Sometimes needed time to think. I'm sorry when you were sad, I told you how much I loved you when you really just wanted to be left alone. I'm sorry I gave you everything I had when all you needed was space. And I'm sorry that you weren't happy with me and cheated on me twice and lied to me about it constantly. I guess you could blame all of this on me. I doubt anyone will even see this, but damn I really needed to get this off of my chest.
2:03 to 2:55 always makes me bust out crying. At 14 my parents were going through a divorce and I was being terrible to my mother, because I thought she was cheating. When it was actually my dad cheating on her. But my mom never wanted me to think bad about my father so she went with it. So I moved out and moved in with my brother.. I left my mother in her grief. I feel terrible about it every day. And that part reminds me about it so much it’s unbelievable... If you go through and listen to that part it’s like spot on.
Hey girl I know what u mean like literally I went through the same thing when I was 10 and I blamed my mom for her and my dads divorce. But it was acrually my dads fault cuz he cheated on her and treated her awful. But I went and got mad at my mom for it all amd added to her grief like u did to ur mom when ur parents got a divorce
Ive known this song forever, but since ive lost my husband recently after 10 years its never hit so hard. The first chorus just took jab to my heart. I regrete so many things, and theres so many things I wish ive said, or said more often. Remember to tell your loved ones how much you love them before its late.
This song always reminds me of my dad I’m 17 and he always been in n out of prison has 7 felonies n is now deported ....my mom always cried herself every night and stayed loyal for years and years there still together..... and he tells us sorry for not being a dad and that he wish he was a good one to me and my siblings. It upsets him he missed out on our lives
It's pretty common to hear that rappers are uneducated and mentally limited. This I don't agree with. If you stop, slow down and listen, you'll see these words are very poetic.
Sy Loze Akon wrote the song because he was blamed for sexually harassing an under-aged girl in a 21 and older club. It was clearly that club's, parents' and the girl's fault. hence "Even thought he blames on you, I'll take that blame from you."
damn yo this shit hit me hard... i dont know why but this reminds me of all the bad shit ive done and all the people i hurt...fromm all the drug using, drug dealing, cheating, gang bang, skipping school, running away, cop encounters, fights, theft, and more that i cant think of at the moment....if i robbed your house im sorry..if i broke into your car and took some stuff im sorry..if i sold you drugs im sorry...if i fought you im sorry, if i cheated on you im sorry... if i hurt you in anyway im sorry..i was young then now im 15 i know a little better i know 15 aint old but from all the shit ive been through feels like i know the world better than most my age...i would like to forgive those who abused me and hurt me physically and mentally but damn it i cant forgive you ..pray one day i can
@@guysontoyma-vierra5756 lmfao nigga said I was young then, then busted out with... "Now I'm 15." If you don't get cho ass on and trade some pokemon cards.

My daughter's father's song! Lol. Never. I'm joking 100% but this takes a respectful man to admit his wrongs, etc.
its a beautiful song but the real meaning is clear his name. "even though the blame's on you" is very clear about that

Salute to both these legends Clinton Sparks for writing such a masterpiece and Akon for delivering the unheard melodies so we could also be a part of it
Thursday 3 October 2019 ! One old song. A thousand old memories.
When I was younger I didnt understand this song. Now I truley understand why my mother cried to this song and dedicated this song to my dad.
Man this is me but I knew why my mum would sing ut
My dads fav song before he died i miss him everyday and this singer is one of his favorite singers besides creed 3 doors down and much more others i think about him everytime i listen to this song :(
Sorry for the phone with my mom is going to work with you too and we can go ahead with the way 😍😍😍
Old but gold June 15 2019 anyone?
Meeee!!:-)
Here I am 😜
Me
Yup
June 22, 2019❤️
Listening to this lyrics giving me goosebumps all over. At first it was the beats I like. But now I've grown up listening to it all over again, I'm so loving the lyrics. Akon did a good job on writing the song
Hands up for the people in 2019 and still listening this song .
Osman Fadol me here 🙌🏾
🙌
havent listened to this in over years- i was so obssesed with this song when i was a kid- im crying- i love this song so much-
Bro I feel the same way i was always listening to this song o and I also like beautiful girl by Sean Kingston
We old... But we all come back to this song. Chin up kings and queens, I am having a bad time in life and if you are here chances are you are too. Just keep pushing because that's what I am doing...
Fighting to us.
This is my jam during mg high school life, and now it's 2022, I'm already married and I can now fully understand the message of this song. This is so precious. 💕
24th August 2019 ❤️ this songs gives me the chills and I wanted to say I’m sorry dad I love you
same here dear
:
You
I wanna dedicate this to my ex. I'm sorry that I wasn't the man of your dreams. I'm sorry that I couldn't be there with you every waking second. I'm sorry that I have severe depression and Sometimes needed time to think. I'm sorry when you were sad, I told you how much I loved you when you really just wanted to be left alone. I'm sorry I gave you everything I had when all you needed was space. And I'm sorry that you weren't happy with me and cheated on me twice and lied to me about it constantly. I guess you could blame all of this on me. I doubt anyone will even see this, but damn I really needed to get this off of my chest.
+PFBGaming I'm sorry. I know you probably loved her very much. But you deserve so much better (: Stay Strong ! (:
+kerstin simpson Thank you so much for the kind words kerstin :)
You're so Welcome !!
yeah she was a bitch
i know how you feel..trust me! #StayStrong
Still banging this in 2019 never gonna get old
February 2024 and the sense in this song still hits, More blessings Akon🙏❤
this song always kept me thinking of life
yup
TheMirrorNinja 05 ya it does
TheMirrorNinja 05 definitely. it reminds me of the mistakes I've made
Yup
TheMirrorNinja 05 yes
2:03 to 2:55 always makes me bust out crying. At 14 my parents were going through a divorce and I was being terrible to my mother, because I thought she was cheating. When it was actually my dad cheating on her. But my mom never wanted me to think bad about my father so she went with it. So I moved out and moved in with my brother.. I left my mother in her grief. I feel terrible about it every day. And that part reminds me about it so much it’s unbelievable... If you go through and listen to that part it’s like spot on.
The Gamer1155 i feel u
Akon is a king
The Gamer1155 same but I just turned 14 and I’m going though a divorce
holy shit man im sorry. Your mom sounds like an amazing person. Best wishes
Hey girl I know what u mean like literally I went through the same thing when I was 10 and I blamed my mom for her and my dads divorce. But it was acrually my dads fault cuz he cheated on her and treated her awful. But I went and got mad at my mom for it all amd added to her grief like u did to ur mom when ur parents got a divorce
2020 we're a gang😊 Hi from sarawak malaysia🇲🇾

Ive known this song forever, but since ive lost my husband recently after 10 years its never hit so hard. The first chorus just took jab to my heart. I regrete so many things, and theres so many things I wish ive said, or said more often. Remember to tell your loved ones how much you love them before its late.
So true we don't know what we have until they're gone and you can't just call them, you can only talk to them through prayers 🙏 ❤️
This song always reminds me of my dad I’m 17 and he always been in n out of prison has 7 felonies n is now deported ....my mom always cried herself every night and stayed loyal for years and years there still together..... and he tells us sorry for not being a dad and that he wish he was a good one to me and my siblings. It upsets him he missed out on our lives
brianna reyes at least he’s still alive
My dad's in I'm 14 I need to be a man and look out after my 2 little brothers who are 1 and 1/2
I tell my kids put the blame on me
I'm so sorry for that... I hope it gets better for you and your family!!
Sorry you went thru all that X
If i could turn back the time. This song reminds me of my childhood 😢
same as me 😢
Same...
This song is helping me with depression
Wish you speed recovery from depression , I hope u grow more stronger and get all happiness & good health in life ..
Thx
Hope all is well callie😁

I'm here😞✋
2017 and still hits me hard 😞😔

It's pretty common to hear that rappers are uneducated and mentally limited. This I don't agree with. If you stop, slow down and listen, you'll see these words are very poetic.
akon's not a rapper. but I agree with the sentiment
Word!!!
thats true
How do you know he wrote the lyrics ? Most singers just sing the lyrics they get from composers.
Sy Loze Akon wrote the song because he was blamed for sexually harassing an under-aged girl in a 21 and older club.
It was clearly that club's, parents' and the girl's fault. hence
"Even thought he blames on you, I'll take that blame from you."
damn yo this shit hit me hard... i dont know why but this reminds me of all the bad shit ive done and all the people i hurt...fromm all the drug using, drug dealing, cheating, gang bang, skipping school, running away, cop encounters, fights, theft, and more that i cant think of at the moment....if i robbed your house im sorry..if i broke into your car and took some stuff im sorry..if i sold you drugs im sorry...if i fought you im sorry, if i cheated on you im sorry... if i hurt you in anyway im sorry..i was young then now im 15 i know a little better i know 15 aint old but from all the shit ive been through feels like i know the world better than most my age...i would like to forgive those who abused me and hurt me physically and mentally but damn it i cant forgive you ..pray one day i can
KING YAP Then change to a better person and forgot those who hurt you , be a person who people would look up to , not down
Respect❤
Dude your a good person just move ahead
Your fifteen hahaha you still a youngin
@@guysontoyma-vierra5756 lmfao nigga said I was young then, then busted out with... "Now I'm 15." If you don't get cho ass on and trade some pokemon cards.
