New agenda

[Chuck D's Intro:] It ain't nothin 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 nothin but a us thang She's strong and that's a fact Now 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 rob 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
