Welcome to the forums, warga.
Many people seem to get into trouble with that pattern/password feature in Android devices.
I'm wondering which device you're having the trouble with because I want to suggest that you put it into recovery mode and do a factory data reset from that menu. Once you do a factory data reset and have changed your password in your Google/gmail account online using a computer, you can access your Google/gmail account in your device with the new password when it prompts you to set up that account again.
There is a slightly different button pressing combination for each Android device, for example on the Samsung Fascinate the user holds the up and down volume keys simultaneously while pressing the power key for several seconds until the Samsung name appears on the screen.
Release the keys and a short blue menu appears with four choices, the factory data reset among them.
Tell us your device name and model and we can proceed (again, be sure to have the new password set up in your Google/gmail account before doing the reset).

Hold down the volume up, home and search buttons for at least 5 seconds.
