Lyrics by：Lin-Manuel Miranda

Produced by：Mike Elizondo/Lin-Manuel Miranda/Eisa Davis

Hey the cops are gone

You got a light or somethin'

No

Why're you being so quiet in this subway tunnel

Whaddaya think I bite or somethin'

Let's just keep moving until Union Square

Where

Off the street underground where it's safe

Can ya make me a Warrior

Ha I don't think you'd like initiation

Inituate me I'm a ****** warrior

Gotta get to union square before the cops reach the station

So whatcha wanna do jump me into the crew

Well you split from the Orphans are you loyal

I'm loyal to you

What's wrong Kiss me

You know from the moment we came uptown everything's gone wrong

Let's just keep walking

If I'm everything wrong why'd you keep me along Tell me

Why stick up for a stranger in spite of the danger Tell me

I followed the night just to be in your corner

So where we goin'

I'd fight by your side I would stay in your corner

And you know it

Look at me

What in the hell are you looking for

Look at me

I'm by your side what you looking for

We got life just this one life

And I wanna live not just live to survive

Look at me

God let me know what you're looking for

Don't know what you want from me

Don't know what you think you see in me

Don't know why you hauntin' me

Do you want some different scenery

Don't tell me you believe in me

You don't even know me

You lonely You'll be just as lonely in Coney look

I've been in and out of juvie

Livin' in a kind of horror movie

She gets killed if she sits still

But her sick skill keeps her moving

Gotta keep moving I was sleeping under the boardwalk

When the Warriors came and claimed me

Cleon took me in and named me Swan

Now Cleon's gone

And tonight can't be undone

Nothing done can be undone

Look at me

Be careful I'm broken so don't put your hope in me

What are you looking for

Look at me

I'm beat up I'm busted do not put your trust in me

Look at me

Mercy whaddaya want me to say That you're beautiful

'Cause I think we both know that you're beautiful

You're more than beautiful

More than beautiful

You're more than your body

You're more than these lips or this face

And if we ever somehow get out of this place

Then you'll go

Then we'll go

Find something new

It's all new

Mercy the light at the end of this tunnel's got nothing on you

Keep walkin'

I think I see a light or somethin'
