Where's the Money At? (Oh My, Oh My) (feat. Rudy Kalma)

Oh my, oh my
Are they really for the people
Yet we seeing no signs

They tryna build walls
But who commit world crimes?
Gassin' us up while we payin' more fines

Oh my, Oh my
Power to the people
So people gon' climb

We gon' keep flowin'
Like the rivers and the sky
Generations of resistance
Be reason for the rhyme

Money spent just to bring this torture to our lives
Money spent just to see the tears in our eyes
Money spent... to kill off and see us alone
Where's the money at? Cause how could we know?

Money for the wealthy, abusive, and white
Money for the powerful men who are high
Money which is spent spreading COVID-19
Money SHOULD be spent for a future that's free

Cause we are the ones marching for a change
We are the ones protesting for the saaame rights
Equity
Peace and efficiency
Water and air
Just show us some decency
Terrible lies and empty promises
Eyes on the prize
So don't tell us the opposite

Your money pours like dirty drinking water given today
We're demanding you to change

You have tried to hide it from us
But we figured it out
Now that we know we'll try to change it
No doubt

Oh, here's yet another problem, climate change
Our future disappearing we need to make a change

Don't say there's nothing we can do
People are dying have you not got the clue

Stop using all that harmful machinery
We wanna see the money funded into frontline communities
Not into the fossil fuel industry

So i'm asking for all of us nowwww
Where's the money at?

Oh my, oh my
Are they really for the people
Yet we seeing no signs

They tryna build walls
But who commit world crimes?
Gassin' us up while we payin' more fines

Oh my, Oh my
Power to the people
So people gon' climb

We gon' keep flowin'
Like the rivers and the sky
Generations of resistance
Be reason for the rhyme

We are starving for a better world
Like polar bears are starving for food

You're leaving animals an unlivable home
Like you're leaving us an unlivable earth

Why fund for the end of our communities
And not fund sustainability

We need to invest money smartly
And then our world will be art
We need to stop spending money on hurtful things
And replant the greenery
So we can have a pretty scenery

Fossil fuels, police, all activities
Enforcing white supremacy
Need to go
Need to protect our home
So
Where's the money at?

Calstrs be using the money
From teachers to harm our community
Six billion went to fossil fuel industry
While censoring youth from reality

Opd and all pds
Get paid for terrorizing
When that money should be helping
People in need and not to feeding the pigs

Don't think i forgot about the governor
Gavin Newsom suchaa good giver
Issuing fossil fuel permits
Like health care should be fast and for free
Not getting all the lil kids sick

They afraid of the people knowing
The destruction they be funding
Green washing they be showing
And get mad when YVA confronting

(And get mad when YVA confronting)

Oh my, oh my
Are they really for the people
Yet we seeing no signs

They tryna build walls
But who commit world crimes?
Gassin' us up while we payin' more fines

Oh my, Oh my
Power to the people
So people gon' climb

We gon' keep flowin'
Like the rivers and the sky
Generations of resistance
Be reason for the rhyme
