Young Gifted And Black Lyrics

    Written by irvine and simone
    Available on the album reg dwight's piano goes pop

    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's a million boys and girls
    Who are young, gifted and black
    And that's a fact


    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


    When you feel really low
    Yeah, there's a great truth you should know
    When you're young, gifted and black
    Your soul's intact


    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


    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
