Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl you're thinkin' about 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 recognition's not enough
I don't care sbout nobody else
Baby I've been on this too long
'Cause 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
Yeah 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, oh
Before they all love me
Until you won't love me
Because they all left me
I'll be different
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
I got you
Girl I still got you
I got you
In the opening lines of The Weeknd's "Rolling Stone," he sings about a moment of introspection. The lyrics convey a moment of recognition, a moment of clarity. The singer reflects on where they are and how they got there with his partner, whom he urges to do the same. He knows he's recognized by fans yet still feels like an outsider. He feels restless, and life feels temporary, making the recognition pointless. He feels that no one can understand his situation, that he is alone in his journey.
The second verse is a glimpse of the singer's vices. He talks about drugs, his struggle with addiction and mental health problems. He knows he has his issues and admits that he seeks solace and comfort in substances. The singer describes his frustrations with the world around him and how he vents it out. He sings about seeking companionship despite knowing that eventually, his fans will move on. But he hopes his partner will stay throughout and help him grow in the process, urging her to love him before his fans do.
Overall, the song paints a vivid picture of a person's struggles with fame, vices, and mental health. The lyrics suggest the importance of a support system and the desire for growth despite everything. It's an honest portrayal of a person's struggles in the public eye.

***** i read an article that explained the meanings behind all his music videos.and some instagram fanpages so that where i go the info.
Essentially in his first music video which is the rolling stony he warned us that he will get famous
We will get "used to his face " and his mystery will fade. Which is exactly what happened since in one of his snapchats for starboy promotions he said -he is coming out of his shell.
Back when he did the noise and the trilogy he was so underrated so he told us
"So love me before they all love me"
There are also conspiracies about him selling his soul to the devil for fame but thats a whole other thing
@AamanAkhtarAhmed
WIth his fans rejecting his "daytime music", this song makes sense now.
"So, baby, love me, oh
Before they all love me
Until you won't love me, oh
Because they'll all love me, ooh
I'll be different, oh
I think I'll be different, ooh
I hope I'm not different, oh
And I hope you'll still listen"
Well, our boy predicted this.
@ankitakapoor1065
Ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
Now you're thinkin' 'bout it
Girl, you're thinkin' 'bout it
What we got here
How we fuckin' got here

They just recognize
I'm in a life without a home
so this recognition's not enough
and I don't care about nobody else
'Cause I've been on these streets for too long
too long, too long
Baby, I've been on this too long
'Cause 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
Yeah, 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, oh
