To Nisam Bio Ja
Coby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Otvaram oči i boli me glava
Drama, gde se ja to nalazim sada?
Mama, u kom sam delu grada?
Nema je mobila, u novčaniku ni banka
Kad se upropastim jedva sebi dolazim
Časa druga, treća, greška kao koraci
Jos gandža kada dunem - ćao, mozgu, odlazim
Bacam pegle svuda, moj živote - gorak si
Zvučim kao pesma narodna
Jednom sam ustô tako u sred zatvora
I rekô sam "To nisam bio ja"
Da, to stvarno nisam bio ja

Aha, aha, važi, važi
Ti si taj, ti si taj - daj, ne laži
I plati advokata koji evro
A za sve kriv bio moj alter ego

To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja, aha
To nisam bio ja, no-no
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja, aha
To nisam bio ja, no-no
To nisam bio ja

Bauljam po tom stanu
Prezubio sam mnogo, nisam imao u planu
Zato sada držim se za glavu
Setiću se valjda šta sve bilo je po gradu
Dani bleja, a noći mutne
Mešam pića, pijan spopadam ljude
Nikako da se u pamet uzmem
Keva plače, moli i stalno me kune
U klubu uvek tražim đavola
Jer sam Tabakmalac - stoka najgora
I rekô sam "To nisam bio ja"
Da, to stvarno nisam bio ja

Aha, aha, važi, važi
Ti si taj, ti si taj - daj, ne laži
Stani malo, bilo je smešno
Ljubio sam ribu, a pored njen dečko

To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja, aha
To nisam bio ja, no-no
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja
To nisam bio ja, aha




To nisam bio ja, no-no
To nisam bio ja

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Coby's "To Nisam Bio Ja" describe a feeling of disorientation and detachment from one's former self. The first verse starts off with the singer experiencing physical pain and trying to figure out his current situation. He then realizes he has no money or means of communication with his mother, and reflects on his past mistakes, feeling like he can barely hold himself together. As he takes drags of marijuana, he feels himself drifting away from reality. The singer also acknowledges the feeling of sounding like a folk song, referencing an event in which he denied being himself while in jail. The chorus then repeats the phrase "To nisam bio ja" (That wasn't me) emphasizing the theme of dissociation and denial of one's actions.


The second verse signifies a sense of regret and self-blame. The singer states that he never intended to end up in his current predicament, but rather indulged in excessive behaviors that now cause him confusion and fragmented memories. He mixes drinks and impairs himself while frequently apologizing to his mother who pleads with him to change his ways. The singer also admits to seeking out trouble in the form of "Tabakmalac" (a reference to a particular type of cigarette), and at one point kissing another man's girlfriend. Again, the chorus clarifies that these actions were not representative of who the singer really is deep down.


Overall, the lyrics of "To Nisam Bio Ja" portray a character who is struggling to reconcile the person he has become with the person he wants to be. The song chooses to highlight the realness of the human experience, and how individuals can be misunderstood and stereotyped given their past mistakes. The recurring phrase "To nisam bio ja" serves as a self-reminder to the character, encouraging him to regain control of his life and ultimately, find redemption.

Keva plače, moli i stalno me kune
My mom cries, begs, and curses at me all the time


U klubu uvek tražim đavola
I always look for trouble in the club


Jer sam Tabakmalac - stoka najgora

Stani malo, bilo je smešno
Wait a minute, it was funny


Ljubio sam ribu, a pored njen dečko
I kissed a girl while her boyfriend was there


To nisam bio ja
That wasn't me

Otvaram oči i boli me glava,
Drama, gde se ja to nalazim sada.
Mama, u kom sam delu grada,
Nema je mobila, u novcaniku ni banka.
Kad' se upropastim, jedva sebi dolazim,
Čaša druga, treca, greška kao koraci.
Još gandža, kada dunem, ćao mozgu, odlazim,
Bacam pegle svuda, moj zivote, gorak si.
Zvučim kao pesma narodna,
Jednom sam ust'o tako, u sred zatvora.
I reko sam : "To nisam bio ja.",
Da, to stvarno nisam bio ja.

"Aha, aha, važi, važi,
Ti si taj, ti si taj, daj ne laži."

I plati advokata koji evro,
A za sve je kriv bio moj alter ego.

To nisam bio ja. x16

Bauljam po tom stanu,
Prezubio sam mnogo, nisam imao u planu.
Zato sada držim se za glavu,
Seticu se valjda šta sve bilo je po gradu.
Dani - bleja, a noci mutne,
Mešam pića, pijan spopadam ljude.
Nikako da se u pamet uzmem,
Keva plače, moli i stalno me kune.
U klubu uvek trazim đavola,
Jer sam tabakmalac, stoka najgora.
I reko sam : "To nisam bio ja.",
Da, to stvarno nisam bio ja.

"Aha, aha, važi, važi,
Ti si taj, ti si taj, daj ne laži."

Stani, malo bilo je smešno,
Ljubio sam ribu, a pored njen decko.

To nisam bio ja. x16
