Usnavi learns that his bodega sold a winning lottery ticket—someone in the barrio has won $96,000! This sets the neighborhood to dreaming about what they would do with the money.

Lin-Manuel Miranda often refers to all musicals having an “I want” song, in which the characters tell the audience their motivations, and what they hope to achieve throughout the story. This functions as the “I want” song of In The Heights, where each character tells you what he or she would do with the $96,000. Other examples from Miranda include “My Shot” from Hamilton and “How Far I’ll Go” from Moana.

Musically, the song expresses the diversity of the neighborhood. Benny responds in a rap style; Dani and Carla respond in a dancehall beat; Usnavi and Vanessa and the community use a reggaeton sound at one point; etc. Even though everyone in the community has a different style and different dreams, they all meld together as part of the same song.
