My fav lyric from every Hamilton song!
"When America sings for you, Will they know what you overcame? Will they know you rewrote your game?
"You could never back down, You never learned to take your time"
"Burr, the revolution's imminent, what do you stall for? If you stand for nothing, Burr, what'll you fall for?"
(Honestly, I love this whole verse)
"If we win our independence?
Is that a guarantee of freedom for our descendants? Or will the blood we shed begin an endless cycle of vengeance and death with no defendants"
"I may not live to see our glory, But I will gladly join the fight. And when our children tell our story, they'll tell the story of tonight"
"Burr, you disgust me. Ah, so you've discussed me"
"My dog speaks more eloquently than thee
But strangely, your mange is the same"
"I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!"
"Burr? Sir? Close the door on your way out"
"Put me up on a pedestal, Writin' letters to relatives, embellishin' my elegance and eloquence, but The elephant is in the room.
The truth is in your face when you hear the British cannons go boom!"
"Watch this obnoxious, arrogant, loudmouth bother, Be seated at the right hand of the father"
"All I have is my honor, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain"
"I know my sister like I know my own mind
You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind. If I tell her that I love him she'd be silently resigned. He'd be mine. She would say "I'm fine", she'd be lying"
Story of Tonight (Reprise):
"I may not live to see our glory! But I've seen wonders great and small. 'Cause if the tomcat can get married, If Alexander can get married, There's hope for our a**, after all!"
(This is hard cause I love the whole song)
"I am the one thing in life I can control"
"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"
"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"
"Your man has to answer for his words, Burr. With his life?"
"CALL ME SON ONE MORE TIME"
"if this child Shares a fraction of your smile,
Or a fragment of your mind, look out world"
"He knows what to do in a trench Ingenuitive and fluent in French, I mean-
Sir, you're gonna have to use him eventually, What's he gonna do on the bench I mean?"
History Has It's Eyes On You:
"You have no control: who lives, who dies, who tells your story"
"Immigrants, we get the job done"
"Black and white soldiers wonder alike if this really means freedom. Not yet"
"Do you have a clue what happens now Oceans rise, Empires fall, It's much harder when it's all your call"
"You will come of age with our young nation"
"Why do you always say what you believe?
Every proclamation guarantees
Free ammunition for your enemies"
"Thomas Jeffersons coming home Lord he's been off in Paris for so long!"
"But they don't have plan they just hate mine"
"Hey turn round bend over I'll show you where my shoe fits"
"A civics lesson from a slaver
Your debts are paid 'cause you don't pay for labour
We plants seeds in the south we create
Yeah keep ranting, we know who's really doing the planting"
Angelica, tell this man John Adams spends the summer with his family
Angelica, tell my wife John Adams doesn't have a real job anyway
I HID THE LETTER AND I RACED TO HER PLACE
SCREAMED "HOW COULD YOU?" IN HER FACE
A MESS, SHE LOOKED PATHEITC
SO WAS YOUR WHOLR STORY A SETUP?
(I DONT KNOW ABOUT ANY LETTER!)
STOP CRYIMG GO******IT, GET UP!
(I DIDNT KNOW ANY BETTER!)
We want our leaders to save the day
But we don't get a say in what they trade away
We dream of a brand new start
But we dream in the dark for the most part
I swear, your pride will be the death of us all!
Beware: it goeth before the fall
Yeah, well, someone oughta remind you
You're nothing without Washington behind you
If there's a fire you're trying to douse
You can't put it out from inside the house
Sir, I don’t know what you heard
But whatever it is, Jefferson started it
They will tear each other into pieces
Jesus Christ, this will be fun
The Adams administration:
Hamilton is a host unto himself
As long as he can hold a pen, he's a threat
Alexander, rumors only grow
And we both know what we know
And when my prayers to God were met with indifference
I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance
At least he was honest with our money
She said, "You've married an Icarus
He has flown too close to the sun"
The scholars say I got that same virtuosity and brains as my Pop's
The ladies say my brain's not where the resemblance stops
"I taught you piano. You would put your hands on mine. You changed the melody every time"
There are moments that the words don't reach
There is a grace too powerful to name
We push away what we can never understand
We push away the unimaginable
have never agreed with Jefferson once (oh!)
We have fought on like 75 different fronts (oh!)
But when all said and all is done
Jefferson has beliefs; Burr has none
(whole song is a banger tho)
I look back on where I failed
And in every place I checked
The only common thread has been your disrespect
Best of wives and best of women:
I know, I just need to write something down
Why do you write like you're running out of time?
The world was wide enough:
It's him or me, the world will never be the same
I had only one thought before the slaughter
This man will not make an orphan of my daughter
Legacy! What is a legacy?
It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see
Every picture it paints, it paints me and all my mistakes
When Alexander aimed at the sky
He may have been the first one to die
But I'm the one who paid for it
I survived, but I paid for it
Who lives who dies who tells your story?:
The Lord, in his kindness
He gives me what you always wanted
