Verse 1
What a detail to exchange messages with death
Or: What a deal to be able to exchange messages with death
One Colt 1911 pistol that brings the portrait
'Siete chinos' or 'siete petalillos' refers to the 7 parts of a pistol
The lord of the mountain, the drones, and more
Guns next to my security
Cuernos del diablo (devil's horns) is a slang expression for guns, AK 47's
Old wolf in haste trafficking powder
God always takes care of me and my Elegua cap
Chorus 1
In my blood, I carry the 701
The 'El Chapo 701' brand gets its name from a Forbes listing in 2009 that ranked him the 701st richest person in the world
Lion's mane, because I come from one
Always thugs, because we're not afraid
Low profile, the young man, and he's missed
Or: The kid keeps a low profile and is missed
Although he's gone, he's never forgotten
Warriors already we are, warriors we'll die
And with the corrido of the blue angel
I ask God for forgiveness for the sins
But that's how it is
Pure double P, man, pure Junior H, man
Verse 2
Blue Rolls-Royce
Like the one of those pills
That to the drug lab, they often have to jump
The money made me fall in love, I want, I want and I want more
Devil's horns and a commando my security
Cuernos del diablo (devil's horns) is a slang expression for guns, AK 47's
Old wolf in haste trafficking powder
God always takes care of me and my Elegua cap
Chorus 2
In my blood, I carry the 701
Mane of a lion, because I come from one
Always thugs, because we're not afraid
Low profile, the young man, and he's missed
To a Ruiz, the one never forgotten
Warriors we are, warriors we'll dfie
And with the corrido of the blue angel
'El Azul' is the nickname of a Mexican drug trafficker and one of the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel
I ask my God for forgiveness for my sins
But that's how it is

SONG MEANING

In “El Azul,” Junior H and Peso Pluma invite us into the flashy yet perilous universe of a seasoned trafficker who cruises in a blue Rolls-Royce, guards himself with AK-47s (nicknamed cuernos del diablo), and keeps a protective Elegua cap close at hand. The lyrics paint a picture of constant negotiation with danger — “texting with death” — while boasting of high-tech drones, powerful allies, and a lion’s mane of courage inherited from legendary figures like El Chapo (hinted at by the code number 701).

Beneath the bravado, the narrator wrestles with guilt, asking God’s forgiveness even as he admits he will likely die the same “bélico” (warlike) way he lives. The song mixes unapologetic pride in wealth and influence with a sobering awareness that this lifestyle has a price. This blend of swagger, spirituality, and fatalism is a hallmark of corridos tumbados, giving learners a raw glimpse into modern narco-culture and its contradictions: loyalty and violence, faith and sin, glamour and grave risk.
