To Be Younggiftedand Black Lyrics

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



Cause you know

In the whole wide world

There's a million, a million boys and girls

Who are young, gifted, gifted, and black...and its sho'nuff where its at



To be young, gifted, and black

We must begin to tell our young

That there's a whole world, a whole world waiting for you



Haven't you heard the quest has just begun



Don't you know the joy, the joy, the joy of the today

Is the day that we all.....that we all be proud to say

That we are young..., gifted..., gifted and black.. and its sho'nuff where its
at
