In "Subimos De Precio," which translates to "We Went Up in Price," Arcangel delivers a powerful statement about his rise to the top. He declares that his value has increased, and he's now "the pressure" causing his rivals to feel down. While others are busy talking about him, he's just kicking back and smoking, completely unbothered. He paints a picture of being in a superior position, describing himself as being "always on top like an attic" and suggesting that those who criticize him are just secret "fanatics."
Beyond the bravado, Arcangel also touches on his journey. He apologizes to his mother for not following a traditional path and getting a degree, but reassures her that he's found success, saying, "don't worry, we have money." He personifies fame as someone who wants to marry him, and he accepts. This song is a bold celebration of success, confidence, and forging your own path, even if it means being a "sinner" who always keeps God involved.
