Young Gifted and Black Etana

[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah, ayy-yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Young, gifted, and black
Oh what a lovely precious dream
To be young, gifted, and black
Open your heart to what I mean

[Chorus]
In the whole world, you know
There are a billion boys and girls
Who are young, gifted, and black
And that's a fact

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
When you're feeling really low
Ooh, there's a great truth that you should know
When you're young, gifted, and black
Your soul's intact
Oh, yeah
Mm, mm-mm, yeah, oh
