Hamilton Medley
(专辑: Covers, Vol. III - 2017)
How does a
bastard, orphan, son of a
whore and a
Scotsman, dropped in the
middle of a
forgotten Spot in the
Caribbean by Providence, impoverished, in squalor Grow up to be a
hero and a
scholar Well the
word got around, they said, this kid is insane, man Took up a
collection just to send him to the
mainland Get your education, don't forget from whence you came, and The
world's gonna know your name, what's your name, man Alexander Hamilton (Alexander Hamilton) We are waiting in the
wings for you (waiting in the
wings for you) You could never back down You never learned to take your time Oh, Alexander Hamilton (Alexander Hamilton) America sings for you Will they know what you overcame? Will they know you rewrote the
game? The
world will never be the
same, Alexander You'll be back Soon you'll see You'll remember you belong to me You'll be back Time will tell You'll remember that I
served you well Oceans rise, empires fall We have seen each other through it all And when push comes to shove I
will send a
fully armed battalion to remind you of my love Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da dayada Da dada da da Da dadada dayada Dada da da da 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 I'ma get scholarship to King's College I
probably shouldn't brag, but dag, I
amaze and astonish The
problem is I
got a
lot of brains, but no polish I
gotta holler just to be heard With every word, I
drop knowledge I
know the
action in the
street is exciting But Jesus, between all the
bleeding and fighting I've been reading and writing We need to handle our financial situation Are we a
nation of states, what's the
state of our nation I'm past patiently waitin'! I'm passionately smashing every expectation Every action's an act of creation I'm laughing in the
face of casualties and sorrow For the
first time, I'm thinking past tomorrow 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 I
am not throwing away my shot I
am not throwing away my shot Time to take a
shot Take a
shot And I
am not throwing away my Not throwing away my shot You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you We'll make it right for you If we lay a
strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you We'll give the
world to you and you'll blow us all away Someday, someday Yeah you'll blow us all away I
wanna be in The
room where it happens The
room where it happens The
room where it happens I
wanna be in The
room where it happens The
room where it happens The
room where it happens No one really knows how the
game is played The
art of the
trade How the
sausage gets made We just assume that it happens But no one else is in The
room where it happens I
saved every letter you wrote me From the
moment I
read them I
knew you were mine You said you were mine I
thought you were mine Oh, I
can't wait to see you again It's only a
matter of Time Will they tell your story Time Who lives, who dies, who tells your story Time Will they tell your story Time Who lives, who dies, who tells your story
