He emphasizes that despite her belief that he would struggle without her, he has found happiness and love with someone new.
The song's tone is both defiant and celebratory. Edwin Luna uses vivid imagery and colloquial expressions to convey his message. Phrases like 'me iba a ir de la patada' (I was going to be in bad shape) and 'se pone hacer corajes' (she gets angry) paint a picture of the ex's misplaced confidence and subsequent frustration. The repeated 'saludos a mi ex' (greetings to my ex) serves as a taunting refrain, underscoring the singer's newfound joy and the ex's envy.

It resonates with anyone who has been in a similar situation, offering a sense of camaraderie and shared experience. The upbeat tempo and lively instrumentation typical of La Trakalosa de Monterrey's style add to the song's infectious energy, making it not just a personal declaration but also a communal celebration of moving on and thriving.
