Omhoog is an upbeat anthem about rising above hardship and literally throwing your success in the air. Esko and Snelle look back on days of being broke, ignored, or underestimated, then proudly toast the fact that they are still standing. Flying business class, skipping the Thalys, and shutting down VIP rooms all become symbols of a life they built on their own terms. The repeated line "gooi het omhoog en omlaag" (“throw it up and down”) captures both the celebratory vibe and the idea of flipping old struggles into new victories.
Beneath the party energy you hear a clear message: never let anyone lock you into a low-life mindset. The artists remind listeners that patience, hustle, and self-belief can turn empty pockets into overflowing champagne glasses. So crank the volume, raise your bottle, and celebrate simply being here to enjoy the moment—because that, to Esko and Snelle, is success worth shouting about.
