Rolling Stone
Kaza Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

C'est pas un Rolling Stone
C'est pas un Rolling Stone (Some-1ne j'te vois au moins)

J'dois finir l'album, le temps presse
J'dois ravitailler la base fan
J'prend la température dans l'binks
J'suis attendu comme une bonne frappe
J'ai ramené l'single d'or au quartier
Au studio, j'ai des appels manqués
T'inquiète maman, quand j'rentre de showcase
Y a la moitié sous ton oreiller, eh

Au mauvais moment, au mauvais endroit
La rre-gue, c'est comme le tennis
On reçoit des balles, on les renvoie
J'ai potos qui signent avec la rue
Et d'autres qui signent en maison d'disque
Y a du buzz, nous, certains potes changent
Font des bavures comme la police (Heartbreak Boy)

La journée, j'pense à la monnaie, monnaie
Et, la nuit, ça fait des rodé', rodéos
Regarde trop noir ça, tu l'as capté, capté
Plus d'une garde a v' pour mon papa, c'est pas un Rolling Stone
La journée, j'pense à la monnaie, monnaie
Et, la nuit, ça fait des rodé', rodéos
Regarde comment, ça, tu l'as capté, capté
Plus d'une garde a v' pour mon papa, c'est pas un Rolling Stone

J'ai trop d'mélodies dans ma tête
Et, dans ma tess', ils font qu'parler dans ma tête
Savoir combien on me paie, font des enquêtes, pourquoi j'ai la nouvelle paire
Ils veulent savoir, oui, ils se demandent, ils ont bien raison
Vu qu'on a 'ssez souffert, c'est sûr, j'dois finir ici

Au mauvais moment, au mauvais endroit
La rre-gue, c'est comme le tennis
On reçoit des balles, on les renvoie
J'ai potos qui signent avec la rue
Et d'autres qui signent en maison d'disque
Y a du buzz, nous, certains potes changent
Font des bavures comme la police (Heartbreak Boy)

La journée, j'pense à la monnaie, monnaie
Et, la nuit, ça fait des rodé', rodéos
Regarde trop noir ça, tu l'as capté, capté
Plus d'une garde a v' pour mon papa, c'est pas un Rolling Stone
La journée, j'pense à la monnaie, monnaie
Et, la nuit, ça fait des rodé', rodéos
Regarde comment, ça, tu l'as capté, capté
Plus d'une garde a v' pour mon papa, c'est pas un Rolling Stone

C'est pas un Rolling Stone
C'est pas un Rolling Stone
Pas un Rolling Stone




C'est pas un Rolling Stone
C'est pas un Rolling Stone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kaza's song Rolling Stone are about the struggles of the hip-hop artist's life, as he tries to make it in the industry. Throughout the song, he references the pressure to finish his album and keep his fans happy. He also discusses how he feels like he's being watched and scrutinized by others, who want to know how much he gets paid and what he spends his money on. At the same time, Kaza acknowledges that he's not invincible, and that he's vulnerable to the same problems that plague people on the street. He has friends who are signed to drug dealers and others who sign with record labels, but in the end, they all face the same dangers and challenges.


The chorus of the song highlights Kaza's feelings of being an outsider in the music world, and of not quite fitting in with the traditional image of a Rolling Stone. He's not living the glamorous life of a rock star, and instead is focused on his music and staying true to himself.
