[00:00.00]I am not throwing away my shot!
[00:02.75]I am not throwing away my shot!
[00:05.39]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[00:06.74]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[00:08.31]And I'm not throwing away my shot!
[00:10.45]I'm 'a get a scholarship to King's College
[00:12.55]I probroly shouldn't brag, but dag, I amaze and astonish
[00:15.31]The problem is I got a lot of brains but no polish
[00:17.76]I gotta holler just to be heard
[00:19.63]With every word, I drop knowledge!
[00:21.36]I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal
[00:23.95]Tryin' to reach my goal. My power of speech: unimpeachable
[00:26.83]Only nineteen but my mind is older
[00:29.36]These New York City streets get colder, I shoulder
[00:31.86]Every burden, every disadvantage
[00:33.47]I have learned to manage, I don't have a gun to brandish
[00:35.85]I walk these streets famished
[00:37.53]The plan is to fan this spark into a flame
[00:39.83]But damn, it's getting dark, so let me spell out the name
[00:42.46]I am the—
[00:42.80]A-L-E-X-A-N-D
[00:45.36]E-R—we are—meant to be…
[00:47.89]A colony that runs independently
[00:50.25]Meanwhile, Britain keeps shittin' on us endlessly
[00:52.89]Essentially, they tax us relentlessly
[00:55.24]Then King George turns around, runs a spending spree
[00:58.22]He ain't ever gonna set his descendants free
[01:00.80]So there will be a revolution in this century
[01:03.60]Enter me!
[01:04.59](He says in parentheses)
[01:06.34]Don't be shocked when your history book mentions me
[01:08.70]I will lay down my life if it sets us free
[01:11.40]Eventually, you'll see my ascendancy
[01:14.13]And I am not throwing away
[01:15.57]My shot
[01:17.03]I am not throwing away
[01:18.08]My shot
[01:19.39]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[01:20.65]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[01:21.94]And I'm not throwing away my shot
[01:24.55]I am not throwing away my shot!
[01:27.14]I am not throwing away my shot!
[01:29.74]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[01:31.21]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[01:32.36]And I'm not throwing away my shot!
[01:35.29]It's time to take a shot!
[01:36.44]I dream of life without a monarchy
[01:38.44]The unrest in France will lead to 'onarchy?
[01:40.81]'Onarchy? How you say, how you say, 'anarchy?'“
[01:43.51]When I fight, I make the other side panicky
[01:45.87]With my—
[01:46.26]Shot!
[01:47.07]Yo, I'm a tailor's apprentice
[01:48.68]And I got y'all knuckleheads in loco parentis
[01:51.14]I'm joining the rebellion cuz I know it's my chance
[01:54.02]To socially advance, instead of sewin' some pants!
[01:56.36]I'm gonna take a—
[01:57.12]Shot!
[01:57.30]And but we'll never be truly free
[01:59.25]Until those in bondage have the same rights as you and me
[02:01.76]You and I. Do or die. Wait till I sallying
[02:04.33]On a stallion with the first black battalion
[02:06.90]Have another—
[02:07.40]Shot!
[02:08.12]Geniuses, lower your voices
[02:09.95]You keep out of trouble and you double your choices
[02:12.55]I'm with you, but the situation is fraught
[02:15.19]You've got to be carefully taught:
[02:17.08]If you talk, you're gonna get shot!
[02:19.23]Burr, check what we got
[02:20.38]Mr Lafayette, hard rock like Lancelot
[02:22.96]I think your pants look hot
[02:24.04]Laurens, I like you a lot
[02:25.46]Let's hatch a plot blacker than the kettle callin' the pot...
[02:28.17]What are the odds the gods would put us all in one spot
[02:30.73]Poppin' a squat on conventional wisdom, like it or not
[02:33.29]A bunch of revolutionary manumission abolitionists?
[02:36.31]Give me a position, show me where the ammunition is!
[02:40.11]Oh, am I talkin' too loud?
[02:41.36]Sometimes I get over excited, shoot off at the mouth
[02:44.08]I never had a group of friends before
[02:45.74]I promise that I'll make y'all proud
[02:48.00]Let's get this guy in front of a crowd
[02:49.76]I am not throwing away my shot!
[02:52.05]I am not throwing away my shot!
[02:54.54]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[02:56.00]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[02:57.41]And I'm not throwing away my shot!
[03:00.05]I am not throwing away my shot!
[03:02.61]I am not throwing away my shot!
[03:05.16]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[03:06.56]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[03:07.97]And I'm not throwing away my shot!
[03:10.23]Ev'rybody sing:
[03:10.90]Whoa, whoa, whoa
[03:13.96]Hey!
[03:14.90]Whoa!
[03:16.76]Wooh!!
[03:18.06]Whoa!
[03:18.83]Shou(ld) let 'em hear ya!
[03:21.18]Let's go!
[03:23.98]I said shout it to the rooftops!
[03:26.98]Said, to the rooftops!
[03:29.81]Come on!
[03:31.11]Come on, let's go!
[03:32.15]Rise up!
[03:33.10]When you're living on your knees, you rise up
[03:35.53]Tell your brother that he's gotta rise up
[03:38.18]Tell your sister that she's gotta rise up
[03:41.08]When are these colonies gonna rise up?
[03:43.64]When are these colonies gonna rise up?
[03:46.09]When are these colonies gonna rise up?
[03:48.81]When are these colonies gonna rise up?
[03:51.37]Rise up!
[03:52.58]I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory
[03:54.94]When's it gonna get me?
[03:56.48]In my sleep? Seven feet ahead of me?
[03:58.39]If I see it comin', do I run or do I let it be?
[04:01.04]Is it like a beat without a melody?
[04:03.15]See, I never thought I'd live past twenty
[04:05.16]Where I come from some get half as many
[04:08.11]Ask anybody why we livin' fast and we laugh, reach for a flask
[04:11.96]We have to make this moment last, that's plenty
[04:14.42]Scratch that
[04:15.17]This is not a moment, it's the movement
[04:17.12]Where all the hungriest brothers with
[04:18.50]Something to prove went?
[04:19.84]Foes oppose us, we take an honest stand
[04:22.41]We roll like Moses, claimin' our promised land
[04:25.11]And? If we win our independence?
[04:27.91]Is that a guarantee of freedom for our descendants?
[04:30.57]Or will the blood we shed begin an endless
[04:33.03]Cycle of vengeance and death with no defendants?
[04:35.76]I know the action in the street is exciting
[04:38.02]But Jesus, between all the bleedin' 'n fightin
[04:39.98]I've been readin' 'n writin
[04:41.28]We need to handle our financial situation
[04:43.68]Are we a nation of states? What's the state of our nation?
[04:46.58]I'm past patiently waitin'. I'm passionately
[04:48.97]Smashin' every expectation
[04:50.32]Every action's an act of creation!
[04:51.98]I'm laughin' in the face of casualties and sorrow
[04:54.27]For the first time, I'm thinkin' past tomorrow
[04:56.82]I am not throwing away my shot!
[04:59.59]I am not throwing away my shot!
[05:02.02]Hey yo, I'm just like my country
[05:03.43]I'm young, scrappy and hungry
[05:04.99]And I'm not throwing away my shot!
[05:07.48]We're gonna rise up! Time to take a shot!
[05:10.18]We're gonna rise up! Time to take a shot!
[05:12.73]We're gonna
[05:14.96]Time to take a shot!
[05:17.47]Time to take a shot!
[05:19.58]Time to take a shot!
[05:21.09]Take a shot!
[05:22.25]Shot!
[05:22.75]Shot!
[05:23.75]A-yo it's
[05:24.46]Time to take a shot!
[05:25.05]Time to take a shot!
[05:25.86]And I am—
[05:26.46]Not throwin' away my—
[05:27.66]Not throwin' away my shot!——
