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
In the whole world you know
There are 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
Yours is the quest that's just begun
When you feel really low
There's a great truth you should know
You are young, gifted and black
Your soul's intact
To be 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
And 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
