Theodosia writes me a letter every day

I'm keeping the bed warm while her husband is away

He's on the British side in Georgia

He's trying 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  brimestone [MEN] preacher Preacher, preacher, preacher But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach Teach ya, teach ya ya teach ya [WOMEN] My mother was a Genius genius My father Respect, respect commanded respect When they died they left no  instructions Just a legacy to protect

[BURR/ENSEMBLE]

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

Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb

[ENSEMBLE]

Climb

Climb

Climb

[BURR]

He has something to prove

He has nothing to lose

[ENSEMBLE]

Lose

Lose

Lose

Lose

[BURR]

Hamilton’s pace is relentless

He wastes no time

[ENSEMBLE]

Time

Time

Time

[BURR]

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—
