Theodosia writes me a letter every day

Burr looks up at the mention of his wife.

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

"You had an affair burr?"
"Technically,"

He's on the British side in Georgia
He's trying to keep the colonies inline
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)

"My grandfather was a good man," Burr says bowing his head.

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

That made Lafayette and Herc look up to Burr. They felt bad, even though he shot Alex.

Death doesn't discriminate

"Wait you went from love to death-" Washington says.

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 (Wait for it)
I'm willing to wait for it

I am the one thing in life I can control

"That's very true," Lee says.
"Yeah it is," Jefferson and Madison says at the same time.

(Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it)
I am inimitable
I am an original

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

"Can't go one song without mentioning him!" Jefferson yells out.

(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

"That was a weird moment in my life ron,"
"Ron?"
"Your nickname,"

And if there's a reason
He seems to thrive when so few survive, then Goddamnit
I'm willing to wait for it (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)
We fall (and we break)
(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-

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)
