    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

      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."

  • @johnsaitama4272

    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.

      +dannycool59x my man dumped me last week. He was mad because i wanted him to be home. He spent every single day "EVERY.SINGLE.DAY" at bars with his friends while i was at home alone. He came back mostly at 12am or sometimes 2am and he would go straight to sleep. I spent dinner alone and threw the foods away with full of pain. I even found pictures of him with many girls and it hurts so much. I found out he got emotionally affair with his coworker and constantly chat with her and hung out together. When i complained about it he instead said i was being too much and overly jealous and hated all his friends. He made me feel its my all fault and i had no right to be upset over his behavior. He then casted me out and wanted to breakup. While i am here being a complete fucking mess, hes there being fine, free and happy. I tried to speak because i needed to take my stuffs but he act cold like i was the one who left him. Sometimes i wish he could feel my pain and regret for what he has done and what we had.

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.

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.

    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.

      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
