New Agenda
chuck d.'s intro it ain't nuthin' but an us thang and it's time for us
to step it up and respect that level of sisterhood that's been holding
up our neighborhood and if it wasn't for our mothers, there would be no
brothers and if it wasn't for our sisters, there would be no misters so
it ain't nuthin' but a us thang she's strong and that's a fact now it's
time for is to take up the slack step it up, step it up, time to go to
work
history hidden from me to hide my identity so i'd never feel i am
somebody you've gouged my eyes i see more clearly you've tried to rob
me of my humanity my spirit you tried to break my soul you tried to
take there's no need to be afraid 'cause i won't do unto you now
CHORUS: amen all that we've been through our time has come to rejoice a
new agenda's due amen it's time to know the truth our time has come to
rejoice a new agenda's due
because of my gender i've heard "no" too many times because of my race
i've heard "no" too many times but with every "no" i grow in strenght
that is why african american woman i stand tall with pride you want to
know what it takes to rid yourself of me now there's nothing you can do
accept me for who i am now
CHORUS
chuck's rap time to step it up, step it up better check yourself i get vexed to protect what we got left her alone lookin' for your own here it is i know what i'm sayin' but the klan ain't playin' at the range gotta step it up us to discuss a must it ain't nothin' but an us thing rewind back to the time where the color of our mother had 'em call it a crime brother what in the world? and the world says where in the black man support the woman and children time to step it up, step it up, it's playoff time
and the rhyme go to check, so check yourself
CHORUS
