From running through life without brakes

I forgot that life is lived in a moment

From wanting so much to be the first at everything

I forgot to live the little details

From playing so much with feelings

Living on applause wrapped in dreams

From shouting my songs to the wind so much

I'm no longer like yesterday, I don't know what I feel anymore

I forgot to live

I forgot, I forgot

I forgot to live

I forgot, I forgot

From singing so much to love and to life

What are you going to do with the rest of your whole life, babe?

For now, get my anti-rapist spray back?

From playing so much with the one I loved most

I lost, without meaning to, the best thing I had

From hiding the truth with lies so much

I fooled myself without knowing that I was the one losing

All right, all right!

From waiting so much, I who never offered

Today it's my turn to cry, I who always laughed

I forgot to live

I forgot, I forgot

I forgot to live

I forgot, I forgot

From running so much to gain time on time

Wanting to steal sleep from my nights

I forgot, I forgot to live

I forgot to live

That's the plan

I forgot to live

I forgot, I forgot

I forgot to live

Hey, a little coin?

Yes, thanks a lot

Hey! What's up!

SONG MEANING

Have you ever sprinted through life so fast that you forgot why you started running? That is the confession at the heart of “Me Olvidé de Vivir” by the Barcelona-born artist Macaco. Over a hypnotic, almost street-performance groove, he lists all the ways ambition stole his joy: chasing trophies, soaking up applause, and staying up late to squeeze extra hours from the night. Each verse is a mirror that shows how easily we trade real moments for applause and competition, only to discover we no longer recognize our own feelings.

Yet the song is not just a lament, it is a wake-up call. Macaco’s repeated line “Me olvidé de vivir” (I forgot to live) rings out like an alarm clock telling us to slow down, savor the small details, and reconnect with the people and passions that matter most. By the end, the playful street sounds and casual dialogue remind us that life’s richness is found in everyday encounters, not in the frantic race to be first. Hit play, breathe, and let this song nudge you back to the present moment.
