The song was written by Jesse and Joy Huerta and was released as the lead single from the album on September 2, 2011.

The accompanying music video for "Me Voy" was released on September 5, 2011 and was directed by Carlos López Estrada, a previous collaborator with Jesse & Joy. (Animation by Cameron Clark, Production Design and Art Direction by Tyler Jensen.) The video features the band performing the song, through an assortment of scenes using a stop motion technique. After its release, the video was met with positive reception and won the Best Short Form Music Video at the 13th Annual Latin Grammy Awards.

"Me Voy" was written by Jesse and Joy Huerta and produced by Martin Terefe. The song was recorded in London in 2011, along with the rest of the tracks for their third studio album ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro?. The track was released as the lead single from the album on September 2, 2011. At the time of its release, Joy was working as a musical advisor to Aleks Syntek, a judge on La Voz... México, a reality show and singing competition based on the format of The Voice.

All the lyrics included on the album deal with the band members' personal experiences. "Me Voy" is a song about a broken heart and how you recover from that situation, feeling better and stronger when the relationship is over. Commenting on the songs included on the album, Jesse said: "[our] maturity can be heard in the lyrics, we made it as tangible, more real, more raw than ever, more visceral yet romantic, melancholic and proactive." Jon O'Brien of Allmusic described the song as "melodic Latin rock".
