Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story - Original Broadway Cast Of Hamilton
Let me tell you what I wish I'd known
when I was young and dreamed of glory.
You have no control:
Who lives,
who dies,
who tells your story?
President Jefferson:
I'll give him this: his financial system is a
work of genius. I couldn't undo it if I tried.
And I tried.
Who lives,
who dies,
who tells your story?
President Madison:
He took our country from bankruptcy to
prosperity. I hate to admit it, but he doesn't
get enough credit for all the credit he gave us.
Who lives,
who dies,
who tells your story?
Every other founding father story gets told.
Every other founding father gets to grow old.
And when you're gone, who remembers
your name?
Who keeps your flame?
Who tells your
story?
Who tells your story?
Who tells your
story?
Eliza.
I put myself back in the narrative.
Eliza.
I stop wasting time on tears.
I live another fifty years.
It's not enough.
ELIZA
I interview every soldier who fought by
your side.
She tells our story.
I try to make sense of your thousands of pages of
writings.
You really do write like you're running out of—
Time.
ELIZA
I rely on—
Angelica.
ELIZA
While she's alive—
We tell your story.
She is buried in Trinity Church,
Near you.
When I needed her most, she was right on—
Time.
And I'm still not through.
I ask myself, "What would you do if you had more—"
Time.
The Lord, in his kindness,
He gives me what you always wanted.
He gives me more—
Time.
I raise funds in D.C. for the Washington
Monument.
She tells my story.
I speak out against slavery.
You could have done so much more if you
only had—
Time.
And when my time is up, have I done
enough?
Will they tell our
story?
Oh. Can I show you what I'm proudest of?
The orphanage.
I establish the first private orphanage in
New York City.
The orphanage.
I help to raise hundreds of children.
I get to see them growing up.
The orphanage.
In their eyes I see you, Alexander.
I see you every—
Time.
And when my time
is up,
Have I done enough? COMPANY
Will they tell my
story?
Oh, I can't wait to see you again.
It's only a matter of—
ELIZA AND COMPANY
Will they tell your
story?
Time…
Who lives, who
dies, who tells your
story?
Time…
Will they tell your
story?
Time…
Who lives, who
dies –
Who tells your story?
