Soulja Boy has issued an apology for dissing U.S. troops on his song “Let’s Be Real.”

The offending lyrics were as follows: “F–k the FBI and f–k all the army troops… fighting for what? B—h be your own man… I’ll be flying through the clouds with green like I’m Peter Pan.”

The Atlanta rapper released the following statement to the Global Grind site:

“In no way do I want to hurt any of our honorable soldiers who put their lives at risk, regardless of how they feel about the two wars we fight in. I am just frustrated that we haven’t been able to bring you all home quick enough and my frustration got the best of me. I am deeply sorry. As an artist, I let my words get the best of me. Sometimes there are things that we feel, things that we want to express, and when we put them on paper and speak them out loud, they can come out wrong. When I expressed my frustration with the U.S. Army, not only did my words come out wrong, I was wrong to even speak them. So, I write this to give my sincerest apology to all members of the United States military services, as well as their families that were offended by my most recent lyrics.”

However, Soulja Boy seemed to take a less diplomatic approach in a Tweet he sent earlier:

“If people would listen and have more info they would know I was talking about the funds of war not being put towards education.”

And he posted this earlier: “Some people just mess with me because its me. Y’all know that for a fact. They know I love America they just doing this cuz its me. Whatever.”
