Nova Agenda (part. Chuck D)


It ain't nothin' but an us thing


And it's time for us to step it up and respect


That level of sisterhood that's been holdin' 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 nothing but an us thing


She's strong and that's a fact


Not it's time for us 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 rub 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" to many times


But with every "no" I grow in strength


That is why


African American women


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




Repeat Chorus




Time to step it up, step it up


Better check yourself


I got 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 a 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 women and the children


Time to step it up, step it up, it's play off time


And the rhyme go to check, so check yourself
