Janet Jackson - New Agenda слова песни
It ain`t nothin` but an us thingAnd it`s time for us to step it up and respectThat level of sisterhood that`s been holdin` up our neighborhoodAnd if it wasn`t for our mothers there would be no brothersAnd if it wasn`t for our sisters there would be no mistersSo it ain`t nothing but an us thingShe`s strong and that`s a factNot it`s time for us to take up the slackStep it up, step it up time to go to workHistory hidden from meTo hide my identitySo I`d never feelI am somebodyYou`ve gouged my eyesI see more clearlyYou`ve tried to rub me of my humanityMy spirit you tried to breakMy soul you tried to takeThere`s no need to be afraid"Cause I won`t do unto you nowChorus:AmenAll that we`ve been throughOur time has come to rejoiceA new agenda`s dueAmenIt`s time to know the truthOur time has come to rejoiceA new agenda`s dueBecause of my genderI`ve heard "no" too many timesBecause of my raceI`ve heard "no" to many timesBut with every "no" I grow in strengthThat is whyAfrican American womenI stand tall with prideYou want to know what it takesTo rid yourself of me nowThere`s nothing you can doAccept me for who I am nowRepeat ChorusTime to step it up, step it upBetter check yourselfI got vexed to protect what we gotLeft her aloneLookin` for your ownHere it is I know what I`m sayin`But the Klan ain`t playin` at the rangeGotta step it up us to a discuss a mustIt ain`t nothin` but an us thingRewind back to the timeWhere the color of our motherHad `em call it a crimeBrother what in the world?And the world says where in the black manSupport the women and the childrenTime to step it up, step it up, it`s play off timeAnd the rhyme go to check, so check yourselfRepeat Chorus
