[Verse 1]
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, to what I mean
[Bridge]
'Cause you know
In this whole wide world
There's a million, a million boys and girls
Who are young, gifted, and Black
That's a fact, oh, yes it is
[Verse 2]
To be young, gifted, and Black
We must begin to tell our young
Don't you know that there's a whole world
A whole world waiting for you
Haven't you heard the quest has just begun, mhm
[Bridge]
Don't you know that the joy
The joy, the joy of today
Is the day that we all, that we all be proud to say
That we are young, gifted, gifted and Black
And it's sho'nuff where it's at
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, to what I mean
[Bridge]
'Cause you know
In this whole wide world
There's a million, a million boys and girls
Who are young, gifted, and Black
That's a fact, oh, yes it is
[Verse 2]
To be young, gifted, and Black
We must begin to tell our young
Don't you know that there's a whole world
A whole world waiting for you
Haven't you heard the quest has just begun, mhm
[Bridge]
Don't you know that the joy
The joy, the joy of today
Is the day that we all, that we all be proud to say
That we are young, gifted, gifted and Black
And it's sho'nuff where it's at
