0:10Theodosia writes me a letter ev'ry day
0:15I'm keeping her bed warm while her husband
0:17Is away
0:20He's on the British side in Georgia
0:23He's tryin' to keep the colonies in line
0:25But he can keep all of Georgia
0:28Theodosia she's mine
0:30Love doesn't discriminate
0:32Between the sinners
0:33And the saints
0:34It takes and it takes and it takes
0:35And we keep loving anyway
0:37We laugh and we cry and we break
0:39And we make our mistakes
0:40And if there's a reason I'm by her side
0:43When so many have tried
0:45Then I'm willing to wait for it
0:47I'm willing to wait for it
0:51My grandfather
0:52Was a fire and brimstone
0:53Preacher preacher preacher preacher
0:56But there are things that the homilies and hymns
0:58Won't teach ya teach ya teach ya teach ya
1:01My mother was a genius genius
1:04My father commanded respect respect respect
1:06When they died they left no Instructions
1:09Just a legacy to protect
1:11Death doesn't discriminate
1:13Between the sinners and the saints
1:14It takes and it takes and it takes
1:16And we keep living anyway
1:18We rise and we fall and we break
1:20And we make our mistakes
1:21And if there's a reason I'm still alive
1:24When everyone who loves me has died
1:26I'm willing to wait for it wait for it
1:28I'm willing to wait for it
1:32Wait for it wait for it
1:33Wait for it wait for it
1:34I am the one thing in life I can control
1:37Wait for it wait for it
1:38Wait for it wait for it
1:39I am inimitable I am an original
1:42Wait for it wait for it
1:43Wait for it wait for it
1:44I'm not falling behind or running late
1:47Wait for it wait for it
1:48Wait for it wait for it
1:50I'm not standing still
1:51I am lying in wait wait
1:53Wait wait
1:55Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb climb climb climb
2:00He has something to prove he has nothing to lose
2:03Lose lose lose lose
2:05Hamilton's pace is relentless
2:07He wastes no time time time time
2:10What is it like in his shoes
2:16Hamilton doesn't hesitate
2:18He exhibits no restraint
2:20He takes and he takes and he takes
2:23And he keeps winning anyway
2:25He changes the game
2:26He plays and he raises the stakes
2:28And if there's a reason
2:30He seems to thrive when so few survive
2:32Then goddamn it I'm willing to wait for it wait for it
2:35I'm willing to wait for it
2:39Life doesn't discriminate
2:40Between the sinners and the saints
2:42It takes and it takes and it takes
2:44We rise and we keep living anyway
2:46We rise and we fall and we break
2:47We fall and we make our mistakes
2:49And if there's a reason I'm still alive
2:51When so many have died
2:53Then I'm willin' to then
2:58Wait for it wait for it wait for it
3:00Wait for it wait for it wait for it
3:02Wait for it wait for it wait for it
3:04Wait for it wait for it wait for it
