I Apologize - K Rino

I made some comments recently that caused grief to certain people once they

reached across social media frequency

They informed me that my statements lacked decency

Now I’m knee-deep with elite powerful people seeking to beef with me

And even though my research was extensive and I knew that I was saying

something true

I heard that you found it offensive

You cut checks that got me living fat

My major platform, you had given that

And I guess when I spoke, I didn’t consider that

You afforded me the key to let me enter in the doors

But while lamenting my oppression, I was insensitive to yours

I was feeling the impact of a tragedy

And actually I knew that I was in trouble the first second you contacted me

So I apologize, I’ve never been involved with hating

I’ve made blatant statements referencing the synagogue of satan

I apologize, I guess I made waves

When I mentioned everyone who played a role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade

I know now that was a iffy move

But there was a whole bevy of hidden history that my people hadn’t been privy to

Now it’s causing me to lose my livelihood

See I probably could have saved my job if I hadn’t spoken, exposed Hollywood

They told me come and make peace

I got a thousand and eight Tweets accusing me of flagrant racist hate speech

They won’t tolerate or condone evil, they won’t leave you

I even got a strong upheaval from some of my own people

What about the facts that I sent to you

Didn’t know that that picture I posted of me and Minister Farrakhan offended you

You told me to take it down and keep walking the line

'If you speak your mind minus all that black talk you’ll be fine'

So I reflected, and I realized that too often at times

That you really think your history’s more important than mine

But despite that, I’m standing before you, showing remorse

Even though you’re out here claiming a name that was never yours

Financially backing wars, yeah, the list is extensive

I just wanna understand how my abuse is offensive

I’m only tryna be smart and let the knowledge be taught

Uh oh, my bad, let me get back to this apology part

See when I took the knee, I spoke on the injustice I’ve seen

Who knew I’d lose my record deal or I’d get cut from the team?

Isn’t it safe to say those ways are kinda like?

If you tell me I’m not able to critique your behavior

This situation’s been hectic, and it’s left me dejected

But this ain’t the type of apology you probably expected

Me bowing down to you was only a rumor

So yeah, I apologize for not riding on y’all sheisty ass sooner
