Wait for It

Theodosia writes me a letter every day
 I'm keeping the bed warm while her husband is away
 He's on the British side in Georgia
 He's tryna 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 and so many have tried
 Then I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
 But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach ya
 My mother was a genius
 My father commanded respect
 When they died they left no instructions
 Just a legacy to protect
 Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
 It takes, and it takes, and it takes and 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 when everyone who loves me has died
 I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
 I am the one thing in life I can control
 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
 I am inimitable
 I am an original
 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
 I'm not falling behind or running late
 Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it
 I'm not standing still
 I am lying in wait
 Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
 He has something to prove
 He has nothing to lose
 Hamilton's pace is relentless, he wastes no time
 What is it like in his shoes?
 Hamilton doesn't hesitate, he exhibits no restraint
 He takes, and he takes, and he takes and he keeps winning anyway
 He 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
 I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 Life doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints
 It takes, and it takes, and it takes and 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 when so many have died
 Then I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to wait for it
 I'm willing to
