Embriagarse means 'to get drunk' or 'to become intoxicated'. It's a strong and evocative verb that isn't commonly found in every song, making it quite unique.
In the context of "Te Apuesto," the lyric "Que va a embriagarse con su propio vino" (That he's going to get drunk on his own wine) is a powerful metaphor. It suggests that the man will eventually be consumed by his own lies and deceit, facing the consequences of his actions. This poetic use of the word adds a layer of depth and drama to the song's narrative of betrayal and eventual comeuppance.
This song starts with one of the most dramatic opening lines ever: a woman calls another woman and says, "Hola, soy la novia de ese hombre con quien sales" (Hello, I'm the girlfriend of the man you're dating). But instead of a fight, something amazing happens. The two women realize they've both been lied to by the same guy and decide to team up against him. It's a fantastic story of solidarity instead of rivalry.
They start comparing notes and discover just how unoriginal this guy is. They bet he uses the same lines on both of them, like "Te apuesto que te dice que / Tú eres lo mejor que le pasó" (I bet he tells you / that you're the best thing that ever happened to him). He even gives them the same gifts! They decide that the best revenge is to call him out on his predictability and then leave him completely. The final instruction is perfect: when he comes looking for them, he should just "llame a su mejor amigo" (call his best friend), because they're both done with him.
