To Be Young, Gifted and Black - Remastered

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 was a billion boys and girls
 Who are young, gifted and black
 And that's a fact!
 You are young, gifted and black
 We must begin to tell our young
 There's a world waiting for you
 Your's is the quest that's just begun
 When you feel really low
 Yeah, there's a great truth that you should know
 When you're young, gifted and black
 Your soul's intact
 To be young, gifted and black
 Oh 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
 Is where it's at
 Is where it's at
