Aid Flow Yo

(Intro)
Yeah…
From the summit to the soil
Let’s talk about it

(Verse 1)
They pledge billions on a global stage
Flash bulbs pop, yeah they set the page
Press release say “we saved the day”
But the funds take flights in a stranger way

From D.C. down to NGOs
Then consultants take their overhead toll
Workshops, reports, suits get paid
Meanwhile villages still in the shade

Blueprints printed, logos stamped
Photo ops where the smiles are camped
But the pipes still dry, school got cracks
Money did a lap, never made it back

(Hook)
Where the aid go? I’m askin’ real slow
Follow that trail, watch the cash flow
Hands in the pot, some clean, some low
Truth get buried where the numbers don’t show

Where the aid go? Nobody say so
Top-down talk but the ground don’t know
If it don’t reach people, what we pay for?
Tell me why it vanish like a case closed

(Verse 2)
Yeah, some build wells, yeah some build dreams
Some just build yachts off broken schemes
Corruption talk, but it’s deeper than that
Whole chain eatin’, that’s a systemic trap

Contracts signed in a language they don’t speak
Deadlines met but the outcomes weak
Metrics look good when you twist that lens
“Success” get tagged just to justify ends

A farmer waitin’ on a promised grant
Paper said yes but the system said can’t
Middlemen stackin’ every small delay
By the time it lands, it’s crumbs they pay

(Hook)
Where the aid go? I’m askin’ real slow
Follow that trail, watch the cash flow
Hands in the pot, some clean, some low
Truth get buried where the numbers don’t show

Where the aid go? Nobody say so
Top-down talk but the ground don’t know
If it don’t reach people, what we pay for?
Tell me why it vanish like a case closed

(Bridge)
But wait—don’t twist it, not all lost
Seen clean water come at a cost
Seen schools rise from dust and pain
Seen real change break that chain

So it ain’t just blame, it’s fix the design
Cut the fat, let the help align
Put the power where the people at
Not just suits where the meetings at

(Verse 3)
Transparency louder than any speech
If the funds don’t land, it’s a broken reach
Track every dollar, make it visible
So the invisible ain’t invisible

From the donor to the final hand
Every step gotta stand and be scanned
If we really ‘bout change, no show—
Then we gotta know where the aid all go

(Outro / Hook)
Where the aid go… yeah, we need that truth
Not headlines, not suits in the booth
Real impact, that’s the only goal—
Make it hit the ground, make it reach the soul
