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 of 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 of 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 blame on me
|
You can put that
|
blame on me
|
And You can put that
|
blame on me
|
|
