Hurricane

Hurricane (颶風) - Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton/Lin-Manuel Miranda (林-曼努爾·米蘭達)

Lyrics by：Lin-Manuel Miranda

Composed by：Lin-Manuel Miranda

Hamilton：

In the eye of a hurricane

There is quiet

For just a moment

A yellow sky

When I was seventeen a hurricane

Destroyed my town

I didn't drown

I couldn't seem to die

I wrote my way out

Wrote everything down far as I could see

I wrote my way out

I looked up and the town had its eyes on me

They passed a plate around

Total strangers

Moved to kindness by my story

Raised enough for me to book passage on a

Ship that was New York bound

I wrote my way out of hell

I wrote my way to revolution

I was louder than the crack in the bell

I wrote eliza love letters until she fell

I wrote about the constitution and defended

It well

And in the face of ignorance and resistance

I wrote financial systems into existence

And when my prayers to god were met with

Indifference

I picked up a pen I wrote my own deliverance

In the eye of a hurricane

There is quiet

For just a moment

A yellow sky

I was twelve when my mother died

She was holding me

We were sick and she was holding me

I couldn't seem to die

Burr：

Wait for it

Wait for it hamilton

Wait for it I'll write my

Way out

Burr：

Wait for it

Wait for it

Wait for it

Hamilton：

Write

Ev'rything

Down far as I

Can see

I'll write my

Way out

Them with

Honesty

Hamilton：

This is the eye of the hurricane this is the only

Way I can protect my legacy

Wait for it wait for it wait for it wait

Hamilton：
