Remigio Pereira has publicly apologized for changing the 'O Canada' lyrics to include the controversial phrase 'All Lives Matter' ahead of the Major League Baseball All-Star game.

In a video posted on Facebook Friday, Pereira said he is not racist, and his intention was "to bring unity and peace through loving one another."

Instead of singing the line: "With glowing hearts we see thee rise. The True North strong and free” during The Tenors' performance of the national anthem in San Diego on Tuesday night, Pereira sang: "We're all brothers and sisters. All lives matter to the brave."

He also held up a sign emblazoned with the phrase 'All Lives Matter.'

The stunt earned Pereira the nickname 'Lone wolf' tenor, after his fellow groupmates said he acted completely alone and they would not be performing with him until further notice.

In his apology, Pereira said he has a biracial daughter and his best friend growing up was black.

"Those who know me know I am not a racist," he said.

He also apologized to the Black Lives Matter movement for "perpetuating this new connotation to the words 'All Lives Matter.'"

"I stand with you. Your voice, it deserves to be heard," he said. "You have been persecuted for many, many centuries and I believe that nobody has a right above anyone else, no matter race or creed."

Pereira said he had nothing to gain from the 'O Canada' stunt.

"In fact, I lost everything," he said.

Pereria said he has lost the respect of the other three members of 'The Tenors', and apologized to them too. 

"I haven't spoken to them yet in person, but I want you to know that I am sorry for putting you in that situation."
