Verse 1
Collection weapons
Jewels and a gun stand out
That is limited edition
Doing the work
I started there at the border, then I picked up speed
For each side Emiliano Zapata
Emiliano Zapata Salazar was a Mexican revolutionary. He was a leading figure in the Mexican Revolution of 1910–1920
Chorus 1
Everything has changed
I move in the fire and I still haven't burned myself
My face, few have seen it
I'm not playing
Light up one of the green ones to destress
I clarify, we are men, not clowns
And that's how the double P sounds, compa Tito, Bye!, Compa, Parka
Verse 2
Here we drink Perrier
Now only fine clothes like a wealthy kid
niño bien = rich kid
In the Urus, I'm well stoned
Offices in LA
The bags used to be twenty and now they're a hundred
As they arrive, I spend them
Chorus 2
Everything has changed
I wasn't good at school, but in devices
In that, yes, I even graduated
We already crowned
Light up another green one to destress
Because the MZ is still working
MZ refers to a criminal cell of the Sinaloa Cartel belonging to Ismael el Mayo Zambada

SONG MEANING

ZAPATA rides the wave of corrido tumbado, a modern fusion of regional Mexican corrido storytelling with hip-hop bravado. Peso Pluma uses the legendary revolutionary Emiliano Zapata as a symbol of fearless independence while narrating his own rise from border-town hustler to jet-setting mogul. Collectible weapons, limited-edition jewelry, Perrier in hand, and a Lamborghini Urus blaze across the lyrics, painting a picture of a young outlaw who has turned street savvy into a luxury lifestyle without ever showing his face to the masses.

Beneath the flashy details, the song celebrates resilience and calculated risk. Peso Pluma boasts that he is “moving in the fire” yet remains unscathed, proving that sharp instincts can outmatch danger. The refrain about sparking “one of the green” to de-stress hints at cannabis as both a ritual and a badge of rebellion. In short, ZAPATA is a swagger-filled ode to ambition, secrecy, and the thrill of living on the edge while cash flows in from every direction.
