Say what you want about Hamilton but there are some RAW lines in it. The entirety of Wait For It is just!!!! Like, “Death doesn’t discriminate between the sinners and the saints. It takes and it takes and it takes, but we keep living anyway.” makes me FEEL things. Or, “If there’s a reason I’m still alive, when everyone who loves me has died, then I’m willing to wait for it.” And that one line, “I imagine death so much, it feels more like a memory.” Just ,,,, stirs my feelings you know???
Don’t forget “When my prayers to God was met with indifference, I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance” like… damn
honestly, i still think SO MUCH about Your Obedient Servant. Like, the polite classical chords as a thin veneer of civility over the unfiltered rage. “I am slow to anger, but I… toe the line, when I reckon with the effects of your life on mine” “even if i said what you think i said, you would have to cite a more specific grievance, here’s an itemized list of 30 years of disagreements.” like, the SALT! the verbal gymnastics! the smokescreen of politeness they both insist on having! it’s iconic, and salty as hell and i am living for it
*softly* Immigrants, we get the job done
All of these are such great lines. This bit also gives me goosebumps:
“And in the face of ignorance and resistance, I wrote financial systems into existence”
As someone who works in government, there is so much negativity around policy-making - called paper-pushing or red tape. So it’s great to see it expressed so positively for once - that writing ideas can make a difference - it is also a form of creation.
people dont talk abt the mixtape enough. immigrants was such a good song, dumping ugly truth after ugly truth, but snow tha product’s lines in particular were 💯:
You claim I’m stealing jobs though / Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo
“make yourselves impossible to ignore. 10,000 signatures on twitter is a lot but 10 unique personal emails is enough to derail an entire council session.”
“Feb. 6th - Mew gave birth. We named the newborn Mewtwo”
no this isn’t a joke, more like playing with a what-if idea where the story went with the old game journal entries where Mewtwo was actually stated as Mew’s offspring. What if he was born as a regular Mew but stolen by Team Rocket and experimented on and turned into what he is now. He has no idea and Mew probably wouldn’t tell him for fear of how he’d react
