Hamilton : I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, Yo I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I'm not throwing away my shot! Ima get a scholarship to King's Collage, I probably shouldn't brag but dang I amaze and astonish! The problem is i got a lot of brains but no polish, i got a holler and can be heard with every word I drop knowledge! I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal, trying to reach my goal, my power speech, unimpeachable! I'm only 19 but my mind is older, these New York City streets get colder and i shoulder every burden, every disadvantage I've learned to manage, I don't have a gun to brandish i walk these streets famished! The plan is to make a spark into a flame, the tailor's getting docked to let me spell out my name, I am the A L, E X, A N D, E R, we are meant to be a colony that runs independently, meanwhile Britney keep sh*itting on us endlessly, eventually they tax us relentlessly, then George turns around running a spendin' spree, he ain't never gonna set his descendants free so there will be a revolution in this century! And to me
"He says in parentheses"
Hamilton : Don't be shock when the history books mention me, i will lay my life if it sets us free, eventually you'll see my ascendancy! And i am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, Ay yo I'm just like my country, I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I'm not throwing away my shot!
Everyone : I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, Ay yo I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I'm not throwing away my shot, It's time to take a shot!
Lafayette (in french accent) : I dream of life without the monarchy, the unrest in France will lead to anarchy, how you say? how you say, oh right (in fake american accent) it will lead to anarchy, i will make the other side panicky with my-
Everyone : Shots!
Hercules Mulligan : Yo Ima tailor's apprentice! And i got John Knuckle-Head's a local prentice, and i joined a local-bellion because i know its my chance to socially advance instead of sowing some pants Ima take-
Everyone : Shots!
John Laurens : But we'll never be truly free until those in bondage have the same rights as you and me, you and i, do or die, wait till i tally in with the first black battalion, have another-
Everyone : Shot!
Arron Burr : Geniuses, lower your voices, I you keep out of trouble, you'll double your choices, I'm with you but the situation is front, you got to be careful, don't talk, if you talk your gonna get shot
Hamilton : Mr. Burr, Check what we got, Lafayette, hard rock like Lancelot, I think your pants look hot! Laurens i like you a lot! Let's plot like the cobble coal in the pot! What are the odds that gods put us all in one spot? Convention wisdom like it or not, a bunch of revolutionary animation abolitionists, hit me your position and show me where the ammunition is! (quieting down) oh am i talking to loud, sometimes i get over-exited and shoot off at the mouth, I've never had a group of friends before, I promise that I'll make y'all proud
Laurens : Let's get this guy in front of a crowd!
Everyone : I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, ay yo I'm just like my country, I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, ay yo I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I'm not throwing away my shot!
Laurens : Ay everybody sing!
Everyone : Woah, Woah, Wo~ah
Laurens : Ay!
Everyone : Wo~ah
Laurens : Whoo!
Everyone : Wo~ah
Laurens : See let them hear it yeah!
Everyone : Yeah...
Everyone : Woah, Woah, Wo~ah
Laurnes : Shout it today with tops!
Everyone : Wo~ah
Laurens : Say it today with tops!
Everyone : Wo~ah
Laurens : Oh come on!
Everyone : Yea...
Laurens : Oh come on, Oh come on! Rise up, when your living on your knees you rise up, tell your brother that he's gotta rise up, tell your sister that she's gotta rise up
Half (simultaneously with other half) : When are these colonies gonna rise up? When are these colonies gonna rise up? Then are these colonies gonna rise up? Rise up!
Half (simultaneously with other half) : Wo~ah, Wo~ah, Wo~ah
Hamilton : I imagine death it feels more like a memory, whens it gonna get me, in my sleep, several feet ahead of me? If i see it coming do i run or do i let it be? Is it like a beat without a melody? See, I'd never though I'd live past 20, where i come from some get half as many, ask anybody why we live it fast and we laugh, we have to make this moment last, that's plenty, scratch that, this is not a moment, its the movement, we are the hungriest brothers with something to prove wait, foes appose us, we take an honest stand, we roll like Moses, claiming on promise land, and, if we win our independence, let it garentee and freedom for our descendants, or will the blood we shed begin an endless cycle of death with no defendce? I know the action in the street is exiting, but Jesus, between all the bleeding and fighting, I've been reading and writing, we need handle our financial situation, are we a nation or state? What's the state of our nation? I'm past patiently waiting, I'm smashing and bashing every expectation, every actions alack the creation, I'm laughing in the face of casualties of sorrow, for the first time I'm thinking past tomorrow!
Everyone : And I am not throwing away my shot, I am not throwing away my shot, ay yo I'm young, scrappy and hungry and I'm not throwing away my shot, we gonna rise up, time to take a shot, we're gonna rise up, time to take a shot, we're gonna rise up, rise up, time to take shot, rise up rise up, it's time to take a shot, rise up rise up, It's time to take a shot, a shot, a shot, and yo its time to take a shot, time to take a shot!
Everyone : And I am not throwing away my, not throwing away my shot!!!
