Dear Greedy Money Lovers
Dear greedy money lovers Oh man do i got some questions
Please tell me why our lovely educators teach lessons for our future generations
But barely get paid enough to feed their wonderful creations
What if the cure for cancer is in the mind of someone who cant afford an education
This is to the schools that hold the future in the midst of its classrooms
Who cant even get enough to have toilets paper for the bathrooms
What gives you the right to judge my school?
Our test scores are low but those tests are fake
written by people who probably got paid with some good ice cream cake
Man our future sure is at stake
Because the leaders right now got money on their minds nothing but money on their minds
And a bunch of young activists are sure not gonna make them any dimes
cause if anything we'll just take it and give it back to the people who actually deserve it
Kicking the middle class out on the streets when they were ones who built this city with their own two feet and rough hands
They say San Francisco has enough money to be its own state
but thats not what i see when i walk down our land.
On mission on third.
Sometimes i see people going crazy thinking they are birds.
They were probably so tired of this misery they wanted to fly away from this world.
I wish i could change the fact that money
rules the space around me
My family, my community
I wish that that green dough
Did not sit upon a gold throne
I wish money
could grow as easily as the flowers in my aunties garden
I wish the seeds were abundant
and in the end
they would not wither
and harden
