Apuñalan comes from the verb apuñalar, meaning "to stab". It's a strong and dramatic word that immediately grabs attention, painting a vivid picture of betrayal and danger.
In the context of the song, Omy De Oro uses it to describe the treacherous environment he comes from, where people "se apuñalan de espalda" (stab each other in the back). This word powerfully conveys the theme of disloyalty and the harsh realities of his past, making it a memorable and impactful choice.
Omy De Oro and Ozuna team up for "A Mi Manera," a track that's all about living life on your own terms, no matter what. Omy kicks things off by talking about betrayal and fake friends, saying he's "visto cómo se apuñalan" [seen how they stab each other] and how "siempre hay un Juda'" [there's always a Judas]. It's a blunt look at the dangers of his world, where he has to stay guarded, even from those who claim to love him, because they "en realidad no me quiere ver bien" [don't really want to see me do well].
He's proud of how far he's come, from a place "donde muy pocos prosperan" [where very few prospered], acknowledging his past mistakes but making it clear that things are different now. He's the "más odiao'" [most hated], which is why he sleeps "con el AK al lado" [with the AK next to him]. It's a declaration of self-reliance and success, with lines like "Soy número uno hasta en Bilbao" [I'm number one even in Bilbao] and his numbers "no quieren bajar" [don't want to go down]. He's worked hard for everything, saying "To' lo que tengo, cabrón, lo joseé" [Everything I have, bro, I hustled for it], and he's doing it all for his family, so "los míos coman bien" [my people eat well]. He wants to be remembered as one of the best, living life his way until the very end.
