Verse 1

They say that loneliness goes away with a drink

Or two, but I know that it's not like that

Because look, drinking still hasn't taken it away from me

But I keep trying here

If the bottle runs out, give me another

Because I want to forget him and his damned mouth

And replay the song that talks

About how the heart heals after someone almost kills it

Verse 1

I hope that I don't end up tonight outside his house

Chorus 1

Because I called him

And I'd bend my pride even though he was so cruel

I don't know if I'll forget you

Maybe on another planet I'll manage it

Maybe

Chorus 1

And it's true that he f*cked up

And he doesn't deserve my forgiveness

Chorus 1

But how the f*ck do I pull the memories

From my heart?

Verse 2

I don't want to forgive you

I don't want to know about you

Verse 2

But I start to think

If you still think about me

Verse 2

Not even alcohol can erase

The taste that your kisses left

Chorus 2

And I called him

And I'd bend my pride even though he was so cruel

I don't know if I'll forget you

Maybe on another planet I'll manage it

Maybe

Chorus 2

And it's true that he f*cked up

And he doesn't deserve my forgiveness

Chorus 2

But how the f*ck do I pull the memories

From my heart?

SONG MEANING

“OJALÁ” is Becky G’s fiery toast to heartbreak. The Mexican-American singer captures that messy moment when the party is loud, the drinks keep coming, yet nothing can drown out the memory of the one who broke your heart. Between shots, she swings from rage to regret, from wanting to erase every kiss to wondering if he still thinks about her. The chorus chant of ojalá (“I wish”) feels like a late-night prayer: “I wish I could forget you, but here I am calling you again.”

At its core, the song is a roller-coaster of emotions we all recognize. Becky G admits her ex “la cagó” (he messed up) and does not deserve forgiveness, but the pull of nostalgia is stubborn. She battles pride, stumbles through temptation, and learns that even a full bottle cannot heal a wounded “cora” (heart). Through catchy hooks and blunt lyrics, “OJALÁ” reminds listeners that healing is rarely neat—it is chaotic, loud, and sometimes sung at the top of your lungs while you look for the strength to finally let go.
