[hamilton]
in the eye of a hurricane
there is quiet
for just a moment
a yellow sky

when i was seventeen a hurricane
destroyed my town
i didn’t drown
i couldn’t seem to die

i wrote my way out
wrote everything down far as i could see
i wrote my way out
i looked up and the town had its eyes on me

they p-ssed a plate around
total strangers
moved to kindness by my story
raised enough for me to book p-ssage on a
ship that was new york bound…

i wrote my way out of h-ll
i wrote my way to revolution
i was louder than the crack in the bell
i wrote eliza love letters until she fell
i wrote about the constitution and defended it well
and in the face of ignorance and resistance
i wrote financial systems into existence
and when my prayers to god were met with indifference
i picked up a pen, i wrote my own deliverance

in the eye of a hurricane
there is quiet
for just a moment
a yellow sky

i was twelve when my mother died
she was holding me
we were sick and she was holding me
i couldn’t seem to die
[burr]
wait for it, wait for it, wait for it…

[burr and ensemble]
wait for it, wait for it, wait for it…

wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait…

[hamilton]
i’ll write my way out…

write ev’rything down, far as i can see…

i’ll write my way out…
overwhelm them with honesty.

[washinton/
eliza/angelica/
maria]
history has its eyes on you.

[hamilton]
this is the eye of the hurricane, this is the only
way i can protect my legacy…

[company (except hamilton)]
wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait…

[hamilton]
