Ivan Y Vienen

The song "Ivan Y Vienen" by Enigma Porteño is a narrative that delves into the life and legacy of a person born into a notorious family. The lyrics speak from the perspective of Iván Archivaldo, presumably referring to Iván Archivaldo Guzmán, the son of the infamous Mexican drug lord Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán. The song is a corrido, a traditional Mexican ballad that often tells a story, sometimes glorifying the exploits of its subjects.

The lyrics begin by addressing rumors and the ongoing pursuit of his father by the military, indicating a life under constant scrutiny and danger. The song's protagonist expresses pride in his heritage and his father's teachings, claiming a natural inclination for dancing and celebration. The mention of his father as a 'maestro' (teacher) and the inheritance of being a 'bailador' (dancer) could be metaphors for following in his father's footsteps in terms of lifestyle and possibly criminal activities.

The song continues with shout-outs to allies and locations associated with his father's empire, reinforcing the sense of community and loyalty within the criminal organization. The protagonist proudly carries his surname, Guzmán, and openly identifies as the son of Joaquín Loera, acknowledging his father's reputation as a 'Rey de montañas, brechas y cuevas' (King of mountains, paths, and caves). The lyrics also touch upon the hardships faced, such as a three-year imprisonment and the execution of associates, before returning to themes of celebration and resilience, suggesting a life untroubled by worries and focused on enjoying the moment.
