Alexander Hamilton (Sped Up Nightcore) - Alex Lacamoire
Lyrics by:Lin-Manuel Miranda
Composed by:Lin-Manuel Miranda
How does a bastard orphan
Son of a w***e 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
The ten-dollar founding father without a father
Got a lot farther by working a lot harder
By being a lot smarter by being a self-starter
By fourteen they placed him in charge
Of a trading charter
And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted
Away across the waves
He struggled and kept his guard up
Inside he was longing for something to be a part of
The brother was ready to beg
Steal borrow or barter
Then a hurricane came
And devastation reigned
Our man saw his future drip
Dripping down the drain
Put a pencil to his temple
Connected it to his brain
And he wrote his first refrain
A testament to his pain
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
My name is Alexander Hamilton
And there's a million things I haven't done
But just you wait just you wait
When he was ten his father split
Full of it debt-ridden
Two years later
See Alex and his mother bed-ridden
Half-dead sittin' in their own sick
The scent thick
And Alex got better
But his mother went quick
Moved in with a cousin
The cousin committed suicide
Left him with nothin' but ruined pride
Something new inside
A voice sayin' Alex you gotta fend for yourself
He started retreatin'
And readin' every treatise on the shelf
There would have been nothin' left to do
For someone less astute
He woulda been dead or destitute
Without a cent of restitution
Started workin'
Clerkin' for his late mother's landlord
Tradin' sugar cane and rum
And all the things he can't afford
Scammin' for every book he can get his hands on
Plannin' for the future see him now as he stands on
The bow of a ship headed for a new land
In New York you can be a new man
In New York you can be a new man
Just you wait
In New York you can be a new man
Just you wait
In New York you can be a new man
In New York New York
Just you wait
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
When America sings for you
Will they know what you overcame
Will they know you rewrote the game
The world will never be the same oh
The ship is in the harbor now
See if you can spot him
Just you wait
Another immigrant
Comin' up from the bottom
Just you wait
His enemies destroyed his rep
America forgot him
We fought with him
Me I died for him
Me I trusted him
Me I loved him
And me I'm the damn fool that shot him
Shot him shot him shot him
There's a million things I haven't done
But just you wait
What's your name man
Alexander Hamilton
