Wait For It Lyrics - Leslie Odom, Jr.

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

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) 

My mother was a genius 

(Genius) 

My father commanded respect 

(Respect, 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 

(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 

Wait for it, Wait for it, Wait for it 

Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb 

Climb, Climb, Climb 

He has something to prove 

He has nothing to lose 

Lose, Lose, Lose, Lose 

Hamilton's pace is relentless 

He wastes no time 

Time, Time, 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 

(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) 

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 willin' to— 

(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 for it) 

(Wait...)
