[Hamilton] I may not live to see our glory!

[Lafayette/Mulligan/Laurens] I may not live to see our glory!

[Hamilton] But I will gladly join the fight!

[Lafayette/Mulligan/Laurens] But I will gladly join the fight!

[Hamilton] And when our children tell our story…

[Lafayette/Mulligan/Laurens] And when our children tell our story…

[Burr]
His enemies destroyed his rep,
America forgot him

[Mulligan/Madison, Lafayette/Jefferson]
We fought with him.

[Laurens/Philip]
Me? I died for him.

[Washington]
Me? I trusted him.

[Eliza/Angelica/Maria]
Me? I loved him.

[Burr]
And me? I’m the damn fool that shot him.

[Hamilton, Lafayette, Mulligan, Laurens]
We are — meant to be

[Hamilton]
A colony that runs independently
Meanwhile, Britain keeps shitting on us endlessly
Essentially, they tax us relentlessly
Then King George turns around, runs a spending spree
He ain't never gonna set his descendants free
So there will be a revolution in this century
ENTER ME!

[Lafayette, Mulligan, Laurens]
(He says in parentheses)

[Hamilton]
Don't be shocked when your history book
Mentions me
I will lay down 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
Hey yo, I'm just like my country
I'm young, scrappy, and hungry
And I'm not throwing away my shot!

[Lafayette]
I dream of life without the monarchy
The unrest in France will lead to "onarchy"
"Onarchy?" How you say, how you s—Oh, anarchy!
When I fight I make the other side panicky
With my

[Hamilton, Lafayette, Mulligan, Laurens]
Shot!

[Mulligan]
Yo, I'm a tailor's apprentice
And I got y'all knuckleheads in loco parentis
I'm joining the rebellion
Cuz I know it's my chance
To socially advance, instead of sewin' some pants
I'm gonna take a

[Hamilton, Lafayette, Mulligan, Laurens]
Shot!

[Laurens]
Eh, 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 sally in on a stallion
With the first black battalion
Have another

[Hamilton, Lafayette, Mulligan, Laurens]
Shot!

[Hamilton]
It’s time to take a shot

[Hamilton, Mulligan, Laurens]
Rise up, rise up
It’s time to take a shot
Rise up, rise up
Time to take a shot
Rise up
Take a shot, a shot, a shot,
A-yo, it's time to take a shot
Time to take a shot
And I am
Not throwing away my

[Company]
Not throwing away my shot!

[Hamilton] As a kid in the Caribbean I wished for a war
I knew that I was poor, I knew it was the only way to.

[Burr, Mulligan, Laurens, Lafayette] Rise up!

[Hamilton] If they tell my story
I am either gonna die on the battlefield in glory or

[Burr, Mulligan, Laurens, Lafayette] Rise up!

[Hamilton] I will fight for this land but there’s only one man
Who can give us a command, so we can.

[Burr, Mulligan, Laurens, Lafayette] Rise up!

[Hamilton] Understand, it’s the only way to.

[Burr, Mulligan, Laurens, Lafayette] Rise up, rise up!
