To
be young, gifted and black,
Oh
what a lovely precious dream
To
be young, gifted and black,
Open
your heart to what I mean
In
the whole world you know
There
are billion boys and girls
Who
are young, gifted and black,
And
that's a fact!
Young,
gifted and black
We
must begin to tell our young
There's
a world waiting for you
This
is a quest that's just begun
When
you feel really low
Yeah,
there's a great truth you should know
When
you're young, gifted and black
Your
soul's intact
Young,
gifted and black
How
I long to know the truth
There
are times when I look back
And
I am haunted by my youth
Oh
but my joy of today
Is
that we can all be proud to say
To
be young, gifted and black
Is
where it's at
