Karaoke Hurricane 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 and 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
I'll write my way out write everything down far as I can see
I'll write my way out overwhelm them with honesty
This is the eye of the hurricane
This is the only way
I can protect my legacy
