You're so quiet But it doesn't faze me You're on dial You move so fast, makes me feel lazy Let's join forces We've got our guns and horses I know you've been burned But every fire is a lesson learned I left my house Left my clothes Door wide open, heaven knows That you're so worth it, you are But I wish I could feel it all for you I wish I could be it all for you If I could erase the pain Then maybe you'd feel the same I'd do it all for you, I would Let's type words Because they amount to nothing Play it down Pretend you can't take what you found But you found me On a screen you sit at permanently I left my house Left my clothes Door wide open, heaven knows You're so worth it, you are But I wish I could feel it all for you I wish I could be it all for you If I could erase the pain Maybe you'd feel the same I'd do it all for you, I would It's time to come clean, And make sense of everything It's time that we found out who we are 'Cause when I'm standing here in the dark I see your face in every star But I wish I could feel it all for you I wish I could be it all for you If I could erase the pain Maybe you'd feel the same I'd do it all for you, I would I'd do it all for you

Theodosia writes me a letter ev'ry day. I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband is away. He's on the British side in Georgia. He's tryin' to keep the colonies in line. But he can keep all of Georgia. Theodosia, she's mine. Love doesn't discriminate Between the sinners And the saints It takes and it takes and it takes And we keep loving anyway. We laugh and we cry and we break And we make our mistakes. And if there's a reason I'm by her side When so many have tried Then I'm willing to wait for it. I'm willing to wait for it. My grandfather Was a fire and brimstone Preacher, Preacher, preacher, preacher But there are things that the homilies and hymns Won't teach ya. Teach ya, teach ya, teach ya My mother was a genius, Genius My father commanded respect. Respect, respect When they died they left no instructions. Just a legacy to protect. Death doesn't discriminate Between the sinners and the saints It takes and it takes and it takes And we keep living anyway. We rise and we fall and we break And we make our mistakes. And if there's a reason I'm still alive When everyone who loves me has died I'm willing to wait for it. I'm willing to wait for it. Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it I am the one thing in life I can control Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it I am inimitable I am an original Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it I'm not falling behind or running late Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it I'm not standing still I am lying in wait Wait Wait Wait Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb Climb Climb Climb He has something to prove he has nothing to lose Lose Lose Lose Lose Hamilton's pace is relentless He wastes no time Time Time Time What is it like in his shoes? Hamilton doesn't hesitate. He exhibits no restraint. He takes and he takes and he takes And he keeps winning anyway. He changes the game. He plays and he raises the stakes. And if there's a reason He seems to thrive when so few survive Then Goddamnit I'm willing to wait for it. I'm willing to wait for it... I'm willing to wait for it... Life doesn't discriminate Between the sinners and the saints It takes and it takes and it takes. And we keep living anyway We rise and we fall and we break We fall and we make our mistakes. And if there's a reason I'm still alive When so many have died Then I'm willin' to- then I'm willin' to- Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait for it... Wait...

How does the bastard, orphan, son of a whore Go on and on Grow into more of a phenomenon? Watch this obnoxious, arrogant, loudmouth bother Be seated at the right hand of the father Washington hires Hamilton right on sight But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write Now Hamilton's skill with a quill is undeniable But what do we have in common? We're Reliable with the Ladies! There are so many to deflower! Ladies! Looks! Proximity to power Ladies! They delighted and distracted him Martha Washington named her feral tomcat after him! That's true! 1780 A winter's ball And the Schuyler sisters are the envy of all Yo, if you can marry a sister, you're rich, son Is it a question of if, Burr, or which one? Hey Hey Hey hey

There's nothing like summer in the city Someone under stress meets someone looking pretty There's trouble in the air, you can smell it And Alexander's by himself I'll let him tell it I hadn't slept in a week I was weak, I was awake You've never seen a bastard orphan More in need of a break Longing for Angelica Missing my wife That's when Miss Maria Reynolds walked into my life She said I know you are a man of honor I'm so sorry to bother you at home But I don't know where to go And I came here all alone She said My husband's doin' me wrong Beatin' me, cheatin' me, mistreatin' me Suddenly he's up and gone I don't have the means to go on So I offered her a loan I offered to walk her home, she said (You're too kind, sir) I gave her thirty bucks that I had socked away She lived a block away, she said (This one's mine, sir) Then I said, "Well, I should head back home" She turned red, she led me to her bed Let her legs spread and said (Stay?) Hey (Hey) That's when I began to pray Lord, show me how to say no to this I don't know how to say no to this But my God, she looks so helpless And her body's saying, "hell, yes" No, show me how to say no to this (Whoa) I don't know how to say no to this In my mind, I'm trynna go (Go, go, go!) Then her mouth is on mine, and I don't say (No! No!) Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! No! No! Say no to this! I wish I could say that was the last time I said that last time, it became a pastime A month into this endeavor I received a letter from a Mr. James Reynolds Even better, it said Dear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth In the pockets of people like me Down on their luck You see, that was my wife who you decided to Fu— Uh-oh! You made the wrong sucker a cuckold So time to pay the piper for the pants you unbuckled And hey, you can keep seein' my whore wife If the price is right If not, I'm telling your wife I hid the letter and I raced to her place Screamed "How could you?" in her face She said (No, sir!) Half dressed, apologetic A mess, she looked pathetic She cried (Please don't go, sir!) So was your whole story a setup? (I don't know about any letter!) Stop crying goddamnit, get up! (I didn't know any better!) I am ruined (Please don't leave me with him) I am helpless (I am helpless) How could I do this? Just give him what he wants and you can have me (I don't want you) Whatever you want (I don't want you) If you pay you can stay (I don't-) Lord, show me how to say no to this (Tonight) I don't know how to say no to this But the situation's helpless (Helpless) And her body's screaming "hell, yes" No, show me how to say no to this! (Whoa!) How can I say no to this? There is nowhere I can go (Go, go, go!) When her body's on mine I do not say (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes... (Say no to this) (No!) Yes! Yes! (Say no to this!) Say no to this, I don't say no to this There is nowhere I can go (Go, go, go) So? Nobody needs to know
