Hamilton the Musical - History Has Its Eyes On You Lyrics


WASHINGTON:
I was younger than you are now
When I was given my first command
I led my men straight into a massacre
I witnessed their deaths firsthand
I made every mistake
I felt the shame rise in me
And even now I lie awake

WASHINGTON:
Knowing history has its eyes on me

LAURENS/MULLIGAN:
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah

HAMILTON/WASHINGTON:
History has its eyes on me.

COMPANY:
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…
Yeah

WASHINGTON:
Let me tell you what I wish I’d known
When I was young and dreamed of glory:
You have no control:

WASHINGTON AND COMPANY:
Who lives, who dies, who tells your story

WASHINGTON:
I know that we can win
I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in

WASHINGTON/HAMILTON AND MEN:
History has its
Eyes on you.

ENSEMBLE:
Whoa…
Whoa…
Whoa…

FULL COMPANY:
History has its eyes on you
