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抯 a million boys and girls
Who are young, gifted and black
And that抯 a fact
Young, gifted and black
We must begin to tell our young
There抯 a world waiting for you
This is a quest that抯 just begun
When you feel really low
Yeah, there抯 a great truth you should know
When you抮e young, gifted and black
Your soul抯 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抯 at
