Rolling Stone by The Weeknd

Artist: The Weeknd

Genre: Pop

Length: 3:50

A “rolling stone” refers to smoking weed while rolling on ecstasy. The title alludes to Bob Dylan’s “Like A Rolling Stone”, where the phrase means a man who never settles down, but rather restlessly moves through the world.

Rolling Stone lyrics

Now you're thinkin' bout it
Girl you're thinkin' bout it
What we got here
How we fuckin' got here
They recognize
They just recognize
I'm in a life without a home so this recognitions not enough
I don't care about nobody else
'Cause I've been on these streets way too long
Baby I've been on this too long
It's getting faded too long
Got me on this rolling stone
So I take another hit
Kill another serotonin
With a hand full of beans
And a chest full of weed
Got me singing 'bout a bitch
While I'm blowing out my steam
Yea I know I got my issues
Why you think I fuckin' flow?
And I'ma keep on smoking 'til I can't hit another note
Ooh, but until then
I got you, ooh
Baby I got you, ooh
Until you're used to my face
And my mystery fades
I got you, ooh
So baby love me, ooh
Before they all love me
Until you won't love me
Because they'll all love me
I'll be different, ooh
I think I'll be different
I hope I'm not different
And I hope you'll still listen
But until then
Baby I got you, ooh ooh
I got you, ooh
Girl I still got you, ooh ooh
I got you, ooh, woah
