Album: Everything Is Everything
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 blackand 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 allthat we all be proud to say
That we are young, gifted, gifted and black and its sho'nuff where its at
