Wait For It |
| Theodosia writes me a letter every day |
| I’m keeping her 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 thre’s a reason I’m by her sid |
| 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 |
| But there are things that the Homilies and hymns won’t teach ya |
| My mother was a genius |
| My father commanded respect |
| 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 |
| 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 (Wait, wait) |
| I am the one thing in life I can control (Wait, wait) |
| I am inimitable, I am an original (Wait, wait) |
| I’m not falling behind or running late (Wait, wait) |
| I’m not standing still I am lying in wait (Wait for it, wait for it, wait) |
| Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb (Wait for it, wait for it, wait) |
| He has something to prove, he has nothing to lose (Wait for it, wait for it, |
| wait) |
| Hamilton’s pace is relentless he wastes no time (Wait for it, wait for it, wait) |
| 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 |
| I’m willing to wait for it (Wait) |
| 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 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 |
