The business is warlike
My aim never fails
His name's Mateo
The kid who's got my back
It's not a lie, it's true
I really like long guns
I'm carrying a grenade launcher
I'm gonna die with my boots on
I don't know how to fail
That's why I'm still here
And long live my people
I have two homies, they're very chill, they never back down
Ponchito from La Lima is a serious man, everything lines up for him
For Chavo Felix, a shout-out to the man out to his turf
On the same line, you hear the support from the organization
Long live Culiacán
Tolín tells you so
Shooting a long gun
And pure 602, homie
Your homie Edgardo Nuñez
It's all good, boss!
The business is warlike
I was born in Chicago
I'm from the mafia
I move the powder
Only people from Mayo Zambada
My brother's with me
There are also shooters for whatever comes up
And a Glock on my belt
And the Monster Sight, I'm never without it
I'm on high alert
Glued to the phone
Because there's always work
I have seven kids and my lady never lets me down
She's been with me since I was hustling for a living
There's one on the way, I'm blessed, I lack nothing
I'm a good friend, I'm also a ruthless son of a b*tch
Today I'm gonna drink
And they're gonna play
Los Tucanes de Tijuana

Tolín Infante is a corrido bélico, a warlike corrido, and it tells you so in the first line: "Bélico el asunto" (the matter is warlike). Edgardo Nuñez sings as Tolín, a man from Culiacán who brags about his aim, "La puntería nunca me falla" (my aim never fails me), and about the crew around him. There is Mateo, "el morro que me cuida la espalda" (the kid who watches my back), where morro is Mexican slang for a young guy.

The song is packed with narco-corrido slang worth decoding. "Armas largas" (long guns) are rifles, lanza papas is slang for a grenade launcher, and "morir en la raya" (to die on the line) means staying loyal to the end. "Pura gente del Mayo Zambada" (all people of Mayo Zambada) names the real Sinaloa cartel figure, which tells you who this character works for. What keeps it human is the family verse: "Tengo siete hijos y mi señora nunca me falla" (I have seven kids and my wife never lets me down), plus one more on the way. He ends the night the way corridos often do, with a drink while "Los Tucanes de Tijuana" play. Love it or not, it is a blunt portrait of the bravado this genre is known for.
