A reggaeton song, the song lyrically talks about one being taught to work for what they have, in lyrics such as "Soy un muchacho que viene de abajo / No le temo al trabajo, es que me gusta la chamba."

A 42-second trailer (or song preview) was uploaded on Arcángel's YouTube channel a day before the song's release. It was directed by Omar Rivera and produced by Mayte Avina. The video features Mexican-American actor Danny Trejo. The trailer starts with Trejo getting his boots shined by two young boys, telling them both how a person is willing to sacrifice everything, originally coming "from the bottom," and telling them "ever since [he] was a kid, me gusta 'la chamba'".
A music video was released on the same day of the song's release, as a continuation from the trailer.
