 * i recently changed my permalinks and it worked I guess but then I checked my 
   address with the /wp added on and it revealed all the core files in that folder
   🙁 im thinking thats extremely dangerous so how do i make the /wp a 404 error
   page or at least so no one can access those files.

   it’s a configuration issue with your web server.

 * As an aside, you might try adding the following to your .htaccess file in the
   interim:
 * `Options -Indexes`
