After her separation from Gerard Piqué, Shakira is going through one of the best stages on a professional level. It turns out that the talented Colombian artist used the pain of this breakup to compose some of her most successful songs, such as “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53″, with which she won two Latin Grammys. However, beyond the recognition, this collaboration with Bizarrap was also in the eye of controversy… due to the direct references to the former Spanish soccer player. In this context, did you know that many people tried to get the singer to change the lyrics of the song? Well, in this note, I tell you everything you need to know about it.
It is worth specifying that this composition was released on January 11, 2023 and, of course, addresses the separation process of the Barranquilla woman, emphasizing the alleged infidelity she suffered on the part of Gerard Piqué and Clara Chía Martí.
In this way, phrases like “women no longer cry, women make money” became popular among fans of the music star.
Before continuing, watch the official music video for the “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53″:
WHY DID SHAKIRA REFUSE TO CHANGE THE LYRICS OF “BZRP MUSIC SESSIONS, VOL. 53”?
In an interview granted to ¡Hola! In November 2023, Shakira opened up about the content of her latest songs, revealing that people on her team wanted her to change the lyrics of the song she recorded with Bizarrap.
However, she defended her position until the end, ensuring that she did not intend to maintain the diplomacy of a representative of the United Nations Organization on an issue that affected her on a personal level.
“Yes, there was some concern before I released the song (the “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53”). People on my team tried to convince me to change the lyrics, but I’m not a UN diplomat. “I am an artist and, above all, a woman,” she assured.

In that sense, the singer-songwriter stated that she had to be honest with herself and her feelings.
“I have always been honest with myself and with others and I cannot live in a world in which I have to hide my feelings, in which I cannot sublimate them,” she added.
Finally, she revalued the cathartic role of music, a medium that has helped her heal after her breakup.
“In this, art plays an essential function: not only the catharsis it represents, but the ability to transmute your emotions and pain into strength, into determination, like a true alchemy,” he pointed out.

SHAKIRA CONSIDERS HERSELF A “WOUNDED WOLF”
It should be noted that this is not the first time that Shakira refers to the attempted censorship of the “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53.” Previously, at Billboard’s Latin Music Week in October 2023, the singer explained her team’s concern regarding the issue.
‘My team told me: ‘No, you’re crazy. No, no, you have to change that letter.’ With session 53, for example, (they told me) ‘no, change the lyrics, please, that can’t come out’. And I… well, I’m not a United Nations diplomat. “I am an artist, I am a woman, I am a wounded wolf,” she indicated at the time.
THE FULL LYRICS OF THE “BZRP MUSIC SESSIONS, VOL. 53″
Sorry, I already took another plane
I’m not coming back here, I don’t want another disappointment
So much so that you look like a champion
And when I needed you you gave your worst version
Sorry, baby, it’s been a while
That I should have thrown that cat away
A wolf like me is not for a newbie
A wolf like me is not for guys like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
For guys like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
I was too big for you and that’s why you are
With a girl just like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
This is so that it mortifies you
Chew and swallow, swallow and chew
I will not return with you
Don’t cry to me, don’t beg me’
I understood that it is not my fault that they criticize you
I only make music, sorry if I splash you
You left me as a neighbor to your mother-in-law
With the press at the door and the debt in the Treasury
You thought you hurt me and made me harder
Women no longer cry, women make money
He has the name of a good person
It’s clearly not what it sounds like.
He has the name of a good person
Clearly
It’s just like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
For guys like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
I was too big for you and that’s why you are
With a girl just like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
From love to hate there is one step
Don’t come back here, listen to me
Zero resentment, baby, I wish you that
Good luck with my supposed replacement
I don’t even know what happened to you
‘You are so strange that I can’t even tell you apart
I’m worth two 22’s
You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo
You traded a Rolex for a Casio
You’re going fast, go slowly
Ah, a lot of gym
But work the brain a little too
Photos where you see me
Here I feel like a hostage, everything is fine for me
I’ll free you tomorrow and if you want to bring her to you, let her come too.
He has the name of a good person (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
It’s clearly not what it sounds like (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
He has the name of a good person (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
And a wolf like me is not for guys like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
For guys like you, uh-uh-uh-uh
I was too big for you and that’s why you are
With a girl just like you-uh-uh-uh-uh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
I was too big for you and that’s why you are
With a girl just like you, uh-uh-uh-uh (it’s a wrap)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
That’s it, bye
