Ok.. what is happening (a Hamilton fanfic)

Wait for it

BURR
Theodosia writes me a letter ev'ry day.
"Oh no" Burr whispered with tears in his eyes.
I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband is away.
He's on the British side of Georgia.
He's tryin' to keep the colonies in line.
He can keep all of Georgia.
Theodosia, she's mine.
" a bit possessive are we Burr?" Jefferson asked. Alex shot him a glare. Sure, he didn't like Burr, but he didn't deserve what had happened.

Love doesn't discriminate
between the sinners
and the saints,
it takes and it takes and it takes
and we keep loving anyway.
"That was very smart said of you. You are absolutely correct."

We laugh and we cry
and we break
and we make our mistakes.
Burr signed. He had made so many 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.
"Sometimes that's the only zing you can do." Lafayette said and hugged Burr.

My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher,
"Wow"

MEN (interjected)
Preacher

BURR
But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach ya.

MEN (interjected)
Teach ya
Teach ya
Teach ya

BURR
My mother was a genius

WOMEN (interjected)
Genius
"Did she have an education?" Alex asked most out of curiosity. "I don't really know." Burr answered. He hadn't have time to talk to her about it before she died.

BURR
My father commanded respect.

MEN (interjected)
Respect

BURR
When they died they left no instructions.
Just a legacy to protect.
"All the stuff we do for our legacy." Laurens said sadly.

BURR/ENSEMBLE
Death doesn't discriminate
"Did we just go from love to death?" Jefferson mumbled.
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 so sorry Aaron." Alex said. Burr looked at Alex with surprise. He had actually used his first name.
I'm willing to wait for it.
I'm willing to wait for it.
Wait for it.

ENSEMBLE
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

BURR
I am the one thing in life I can control
"It still is it seems... since we currently are in a theatre in the 21 century." The others nodded their agreements.
ENSEMBLE
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

BURR
I am inimitable
I am an original
"Wow, that guy is a really good singer. Do anyone know what his name is?" Hercules asked. "I zink Y/N mentioned that he was called Leslie..? I don't really know."

ENSEMBLE
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

BURR
I'm not falling behind or running late

ENSEMBLE
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

BURR
I'm not standing still,
I am lying in wait
"Wow. Again"

ENSEMBLE
Wait
Wait
Wait

BURR
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
"I really did."

ENSEMBLE
Climb
Climb
Climb

BURR
He has something to prove
He has nothing to lose
"That is not true. I could loose my wife." Jefferson and Burr whipped their heads to Hamilton in a 'are you kidding me' look. The others didn't understand what they meant so Hamilton just kept his mouth shut.

ENSEMBLE
Lose
Lose
Lose
Lose

BURR
Hamilton's pace is relentless
he wastes no time
"Yay wrote at a constant son."
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.
"I always win" Alex mumbled before he was silenced by Burrs glare.
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 God dammit

I'm willing to wait for it.
"When I think back on it. That was a really good decision."

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
We rise.

We fall
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
When so many others have died,
then I'm willin' to-

COMPANY (at the same time)
I'm willing to wait for it.
Wait for it
Wait for...
I'm willing to-

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
and we make our mistakes
"We all make mistakes, children"
and if there's a reason
I'm still alive
when so many have died,
then I'm willing' to-
