lin-manuel miranda – congratulations (off-broadway hamilton song) lyrics

[hamilton:]
angelica…?

[angelica:]
alexander…
congratulations!
you have invented a new kind of stupid:
“a damage you can never undo” kind of stupid…
an “open all the cages in the zoo” kind of stupid…
“truly, you didn’t think the through?”
kinda stupid!
okay, let’s review:
you took a rumor a few, maybe two, people new and
refuted it by sharing an affair of which no one accused you!
i begged you to take a break you refused to!
you’re so scared of what your enemies will do to you…
you’re the only enemy you ever seem to lose to!
ya no why jefferson can do what he wants?!
he doesn’t dignify school-yard taunts with a response!!!
so yeah, congratulations!

[hamilton:] angelica…!

[angelica:]
you’ve redefined your legacy, congratulations-!

[hamilton:] it was an act of political sacrifice!!!

[angelica:]
sacrifice?!
i languished in a loveless marriage in london
i lived only to read your letters!
i look at you and think, “god, what’ve we fine with our lives? and what did it get us?”
but that doesn’t wipe the tears or the years away
and i’m back in the city and i’m here to stay!
do you know what i’m here to do?!

[hamilton:] angelica…

[angelica:]
i’m not here for you….
i know my sister like i know my own mind!
you will never find anyone as trusting or as kind!
and a million years ago she said to me: “this ones mine!”
so i stood by…
do you know why?!
i love my sister more then anything in this life!
i would choose her happiness over mine every time!
eliza…

[hamilton:] eliza….

[angelica:]
…is the best thing in our lives!
so never lose sight of the fact:
you have been blessed with the best wife!!
but yeah, congratulations-

[hamilton:] angelica…

[angelica:]
-for the rest of your life!
every sacrifice you make is for my sister
give her the best life!!
congratulations!!!
