Understand that even if I want to forgive you
I can't, I'm no use to love you anymore
You hit me, you threw me, and you left me on the ground
And now you ask that I come back like before
I have no strength left to hate you
My soul can no longer be repaired
I don't feel anymore, I don't see anymore, and even if I try, I don't believe you
Don't beg me, because I can't love you anymore
You were my life, you were everything
I don't understand why you betrayed me
I'm gonna forget you
I'm gonna erase you
So go and don't come back
Because this doesn't interest me anymore
It's too late to hear that you're sorry
I'm gonna forget you
I'm gonna erase you
I don't waste my time anymore
I don't plan to keep suffering
Killing myself for you trying to be perfect
I'm gonna forget you
They say that it's hard to find
An honest love and give yourself
I gave you my heart and you broke it into a thousand pieces
It's because of you that I won't fall in love again
You were my life, you were everything
I don't understand why you betrayed me
I'm gonna forget you
I'm gonna erase you
So go and don't come back
Because this doesn't interest me anymore
It's too late to hear that you're sorry
I'm gonna forget you
I'm gonna erase you
I don't waste my time anymore
I don't plan to keep suffering
Killing myself for you trying to be perfect
I'm gonna forget you

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.
