Roni.O Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't remember where I've been
I'm a million miles from home now
Where to begin?
I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song, before rolling one
I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song, before rolling… and lighting one
And they're calling out my name
They want to know what I believe in
Kyle, Is it the money or the fame? No!
I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song, before rolling one
I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song, before rolling… and lighting one
And this fiddle that I'm playing
It's rolling stoned too
And its singing right back at me
I think it's got the blues
It's rolling stoned, it'll soon be gone
It's just singing this song, before rolling one
I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song, before rolling…
Yeah, I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song before rolling one
Yeah, I'm a rolling stoner I'll soon be a goner
I'm just singing this song before rolling…
.. rolling up…
Rolling up a big one and lightin'
Whoo, yeah!
The lyrics of Roni.O's song "Rolling" paint a vivid picture of a protagonist who feels lost and adrift in life. The opening lines, "And I don't know where I'm going, I can't remember where I've been," suggest a sense of confusion and disorientation, emphasizing the character's lack of direction or purpose. The mention of being "a million miles from home" further underscores this feeling of being lost and far from familiar surroundings.
The repeated refrain of "I'm a rolling stoner, and I'll soon be a goner" hints at a self-destructive behavior pattern, with the character indulging in drug use and potentially risky behavior. The act of "rolling one" refers to preparing and smoking marijuana, suggesting a temporary escape or coping mechanism for the character's inner turmoil. Despite the character's acknowledgment of their precarious situation, there is a sense of resignation in the lyrics, as they continue to sing and engage in their familiar routine.
The verses that mention people looking at the character and questioning their beliefs, particularly whether it is about money or fame, serve to highlight external pressures and judgment that the character may face. However, the character defiantly asserts that it is neither money nor fame that motivates them, indicating a desire for authenticity and a rejection of materialistic pursuits. The juxtaposition of external scrutiny with the character's internal struggles adds complexity to their portrayal and suggests a struggle for self-definition amidst external expectations.
The imagery of a fiddle "rolling stoned" and singing back at the character conveys a sense of shared experience and connection with music as a form of emotional expression. The fiddle's metaphorical "blues" mirror the character's own emotional state, suggesting a shared sense of melancholy or unrest. The final lines depicting the act of "rolling up a big one and lightin'" bring the song full circle, reinforcing the character's coping mechanism and perhaps hinting at a temporary reprieve from their troubles through drug use. Overall, the lyrics of "Rolling" speak to themes of disorientation, self-medication, and the search for meaning in a world that may feel overwhelming.

And I don't know where I'm going
Feeling lost and uncertain about my future
I can't remember where I've been
Struggling to recall my past experiences
I'm a million miles from home now
Feeling far away from where I belong
Where to begin?
Feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to start over
Woah, there's people looking at me
'Feeling observed and under scrutiny by others
And they're calling out my name
Feeling pressured to live up to others' expectations
They want to know what I believe in
Struggling to define my values and beliefs
Kyle, Is it the money or the fame? No!
Rejecting the idea that material success defines me
And this fiddle that I'm playing
Finding solace in music and self-expression
It's rolling stoned too
Feeling a connection to an instrument that mirrors my state of mind
And its singing right back at me
Channeling my emotions through music
I think it's got the blues
Feeling melancholy and introspective
Rolling up a big one and lightin'
Seeking comfort and relaxation through marijuana use
Whoo, yeah!
Expressing joy and excitement
