HAMILTON : AN AMERICAN MUSICAL Β β STARTERS
β he was longing for something to be a part of. β
β and the world is gonna know your name. β
β thereβs a million things i havenβt done, but just you wait. β
β you never learned to take your time. β
β talk lessβ¦smile more. β
β whoβs the best? cβest moi! β
β the plan is to fan this spark into a flame. β
β iβm not throwing away my shot. β
β i may not live to see our glory, but i will gladly join the fight ! Β β
β theyβll tell the story of tonight. β
β tomorrow thereβll be more of us. β
β iβm looking for a mind at work. β
β look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now. β
β oh my god. tear this dude apart. β
β i will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my loveβ¦ β
β dying is easy, young manβ¦ living is harder. β
β then you walked in and my heart went βboomβ! β
β you look at me and suddenly iβm helpless. β
β i am so into you. β
β iβm just saying if you really loved me, you would share him. β
β love doesnβt discriminate from the sinners and the saints. β
β iβm willing to wait for it. β
β i am the one thing in life i can control. β
β call me son one more time ββ¦. β
β i donβt pretend to know the challenges youβre facing. β
β that would be enough. β
β and we could be enough. β
β let me a part of the narrative in the story they will write one day. β
β you have no control : who lives, who dies, who tells your story. β
β history has its eyes on you. β
β awesome. wow. β
β iβll make the world safe and sound for you. β
β why do you assume youβre the smartest in the room? β
β whatβd i miss? β
β run away with us for the summer. β
β take a break. β
β well, hate the sin, love the sinner. β
β no one else was in the room where it happened. β
β and then weβll teach them how to say goodbye. β
β we both know what we know. β
β i will choose her happiness over mine every time. β
β god, i hope youβre satisfied. β
β i saved every letter you wrote me. β
β you built me palaces out of paragraphs. β
β be careful with that one, love, he will do what it takes to survive. β
β when you were mine, the world seemed to burn. β
β the world has no right to my heart. β
β i hope that you burn. β
β everything is legal in new jerseyβ¦ β
β iβm so sorry for forgetting what you taught me. β
β itβs quiet uptown. β
β they are trying to do the unimaginable. β
β there are moments that the words donβt reach. β
β forgiveness. can you imagine? β
β i had only one thought before the slaughter. β
β i imagine death so much, it feels more like a memory. β
β what is a legacy? itβs planting seeds in a garden you will never see. β
β death doesnβt discriminate between the sinners and the saints. β
β i survived, but i paid for it. β
β have i done enough? will they tell my story? β
