Noname - Casket Pretty Lyrics

All of my niggas is casket pretty
Ain't no one safe in this happy city
I hope you make it home
I hope to God that my tele' don't ring
Niggas is casket pretty
Ain't no one safe in this happy city
I hope you make it home
I hope to God that my tele' don't ring
I've been searching for God in the bottle he gave me
Ashes to Ashes, dearly departed, regarded as Holy
Don't hold me, don't hold me when niggas is dying and dying
And I'm afraid of the dark, blue and the white
Badges and pistols rejoice in the night
And we watch the news, and we see him die tonight
Tonight the night his baby said goodbye
Roses in the road, teddy bear outside, bullet there on the right
Where's love when you need it?
Too many babies in suits
Too many babies in suits
Back before the dawn, ricochet the pawn
Bullet in the chest, you ain't mean no harm
Collecting your checkmate, I know you in love with the power
It's flowers at every occasion
I need me a medicine man
Somebody heal me, somebody take my hand
All of my niggas is casket pretty
Ain't no one safe in this happy city
I hope you make it home
I hope to God that my tele' don't ring
Niggas is casket pretty
Ain't no one safe in this happy city
I hope you make it home
I hope to God that my tele' don't ring

Thats exactly what happen right now lol

I made a instrumental (loop) of this song for those hiphopheads here.
I uploaded it on my channel!

This song is so relevant to the current state of Chicago. Thank you Noname for shedding a light on such tragedies we have to face everyday here. 😪

This song is so deep <3

What does casket pretty mean? Is it if you're dressed as nicely as a dead person in their casket at their funeral?

GuitarLord3000 to me it means that they are already done up for their funeral. As in their place in society has already put them to death. They go around and do what they do, but no matter what they'll die young

Forgot to Turn the stove off
Exactly.

Mamolefe Molefe also because of police . listen

GuitarLord3000 police brutality in the world right now. She says all her nxggas is casket pretty because we have so many young black men dying

Casket pretty is an old saying that means you fly..dressed in your best. Shes using it as a figure of speech and, do to circumstances in the city, possibly literally. Figure of speech: Saying all her niggas is fly (niggas is casket pretty), Potentially literal: but they could die at any minute (i hope you make it home) in which case, theyre dressed for the casket

❤ oh my God.

i love this whole mixtape

Favourite song, has to be the shortest in te album zz
