Текст песни Hamilton Musical OST — Wait For It

[BURR]
Theodosia writes me a letter everyday
I'm keeping the bed warm while her husband is away
He's on the British side in Georgia
He's trying to keep the colonies in line
But he can keep all of Georgia
Theodosia, she's mine

Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
And we keep loving anyway
We laugh and we cry and we break and we make our mistakes
And if there's a reason I'm by her side
When so many have tried
Then I'm willing to wait for it
I'm willing to wait for it

[BURR (MEN)]
My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
(preacher, preacher, preacher)
But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach ya
(teach ya, teach ya, teach ya)
[BURR (WOMEN)]
My mother was a genius (genius)
[BURR (MEN)]
My father commanded respect (respect, respect)
When they died they left no instructions
Just a legacy to protect

[BURR & ENSEMBLE]
Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
We keep living anyway
We rise and we fall and we break and we make our mistakes
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
While everyone who loves me has died
I'm willing to wait for it (wait for it)
I'm willing to wait for it

[ENSEMBLE]
Wait for it (wait for it)
Wait for it (wait for it)

[BURR]
I am the one thing in life I can control

[ENSEMBLE]
Wait for it (wait for it)
Wait for it (wait for it)

[BURR]
I am inimitable, I am an original

[ENSEMBLE]
Wait for it (wait for it)
Wait for it (wait for it)

[BURR]
I'm not falling behind or running late

[ENSEMBLE]
Wait for it (wait for it)
Wait for it (wait for it)

[BURR]
I'm not standing still, I am lying in wait

[ENSEMBLE]
Wait (wait)
Wait

[BURR]
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb

[ENSEMBLE]
Climb, climb, climb

[BURR]
He has something to prove, he has nothing to lose

[ENSEMBLE]
Lose, lose, lose, lose

[BURR]
Hamilton's pace is relentless, he wastes no time

[ENSEMBLE]
Time, time, time

[BURR]
What is it like in his shoes?

Hamilton doesn't hesitate, he exhibits no restraint
And he takes and he takes and he takes
And he keeps winning anyway
Changes the game he plays and he raises the stakes
And if there's a reason he seems to thrive
When so few survive, then Goddamnit

[BURR & COMPANY]
I'm willing to wait for it (wait for it)
I'm willing to

[BURR]
Wait for it

[BURR & COMPANY]
Life doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
It takes and it takes and it takes
[COMPANY & (BURR), RIFFING]
We keep living anyway
(We rise) We rise and we fall and we break
(And we fall) And we make our mistakes
[BURR & COMPANY]
And if there's a reason I'm still alive
While so many have died
Then I'm willing to—

[BURR (WOMEN) ((MEN))]
Wait for it (wait for it) ((wait for it))
Wait for it (wait for it) ((wait for it))
(wait for it) ((wait for it))
(wait for it) ((wait for it))
(wait)
