SONG MEANING

“Voy A Olvidarte” is Reik’s fiery anthem of emotional self-defense. The singer speaks directly to a former lover who shattered his trust, admitting that the damage is so deep he can’t even hate her anymore. Instead of begging for answers, he makes a bold decision: erase every trace of her from his life. The lyrics swing between painful memories—being “thrown to the ground”—and a newfound strength that will not let him keep “wasting time.”

By repeating the promise “Voy a olvidarte” (“I’m going to forget you”), Reik turns sorrow into determination. The song captures that raw moment when heartbreak flips into resolve, showing learners how Spanish expresses both vulnerability and empowerment in the same breath. It is a reminder that sometimes healing begins with saying “Enough,” closing the door, and choosing yourself first.

Reik is a Mexican pop rock band hailing from Mexicali, Baja California, formed in 2003 by Jesús Alberto Navarro Rosas (lead vocals), Julio Ramírez Eguía (guitar), and Gilberto Marín Espinoza (guitar).

Since 2015, Reik has evolved by embracing urban influences, collaborating with reggaeton stars such as Nicky Jam, Ozuna, and Maluma. This transition revitalized their music, earning them chart-topping hits like "Me Niego" and "Amigos Con Derechos," and expanding their popularity across Latin America and beyond. With multiple awards and a dynamic sound that blends pop rock and Latin urban styles, Reik continues to be a leading force in contemporary Latin music.
