My Shot(Rise Up Remix) - The Roots&Busta Rhymes&Nate Ruess&Joell Ortiz [00:00:00]

The Hamilton Mixtape[00:00:02]

Ayo mugshots gun shots dope shots jump shot[00:00:19]

Take your pick but you only get one shot[00:00:22]

Advice from a schoolteacher to a young tot[00:00:25]

Applyin' a sticker to his Spiderman lunchbox[00:00:27]

When even role models tell us we're born to be felons[00:00:30]

We're never gettin' into Harvard or Carnegie Mellon[00:00:33]

And we gon' end up either robbin' somebody or killin'[00:00:35]

It's not fair that's all they can tell us[00:00:38]

That's why you hustle hella hard never celebrate a holiday[00:00:40]

That'll be the day I coulda finally hit the lottery[00:00:42]

I refuse to ever lose or throw my shot away[00:00:45]

Or chalk it up as just another one that got away[00:00:48]

So I'm unapologetic I'm on my calesthenics[00:00:50]

If I have given it all I got I cannot regret it[00:00:53]

My point of destination's different from where I was headed[00:00:55]

'Cause I'ma shoot for the stars to get it[00:00:58]

One shot[00:01:00]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:01]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:03]

Yo I'm just like my country[00:01:05]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:01:07]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:08]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:10]

No I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:13]

Yo I'm just like my country[00:01:15]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:01:17]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:01:18]

When opportunity knock you don't send anyone to get it[00:01:20]

Answer the door welcome it let it in or regret it[00:01:23]

They said if you can't beat 'em you join 'em[00:01:26]

I said forget it[00:01:28]

'Cause once you join 'em you're buildin' a ceilin' the way you're headed[00:01:28]

Be American express how you feel and take the credit[00:01:31]

Don't settle for 87 go premium unleaded and[00:01:34]

Take off shake all the hate off it's over[00:01:36]

It's they loss the payoff's their weight off your shoulders[00:01:39]

Must admit I'm feelin' kinda um[00:01:41]

Lighter as a writer with this fire and desire to go higher[00:01:43]

Than a stealth fighter pilot with my eye on every prize[00:01:46]

I surprise you guys I'm a prize fighter[00:01:49]

My nine to five describe your scribe survive minor[00:01:51]

Setbacks and take steps back from pied pipers[00:01:54]

Be leaders believers in yourself and mean it[00:01:56]

I mean you only get one shot take it or leave it[00:01:59]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:01]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:04]

Yo I'm just like my country[00:02:06]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:02:08]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:09]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:11]

No I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:14]

Yo I'm just like my country[00:02:17]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:02:18]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:02:19]

Rise up[00:02:22]

If you livin' on your knees you rise up[00:02:23]

Tell your brother that he's gotta rise up[00:02:26]

Tell your sister that she's gotta rise up[00:02:28]

When are folks like me and you gonna rise up[00:02:31]

Every city every hood we need to rise up[00:02:33]

All my soldiers what's good we need to rise up[00:02:36]

We ain't got no other choice we need to rise up[00:02:38]

Rise up[00:02:41]

Throughout my travels and journeys through life I've been searchin'[00:02:43]

And been learnin' to be the type of person to display how determined I get[00:02:45]

When I'm certain inside I feel that fire that's burnin'[00:02:48]

Like a knife that is turnin' I fight while I'm hurtin'[00:02:51]

Sometimes they're right 'cause life is a burden[00:02:53]

Like the pain from a bite that'll worsen[00:02:54]

Tryna stifle the light that'll shine on me first and[00:02:56]

Before I ride in a hearse and[00:02:58]

My breathing stops and[00:02:59]

You'll never take my one shot I got 'fore I lie in the earth[00:03:00]

And now I kill again on that Hamilton Hercules Mulligan[00:03:03]

Readin' in vanity fair or the Huffington[00:03:05]

Done with the sufferin' we in the guts again family rushin' in[00:03:07]

Wonder where Busta been[00:03:10]

Feelin' the hunger and feedin' the lust to win[00:03:11]

See I've been patiently waitin' for this moment[00:03:14]

To rise up again that's the way I was molded[00:03:16]

And as the last one standin' as the rest of them foldin'[00:03:18]

Give me my one chance to grab the torch and properly hold it[00:03:21]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:23]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:25]

Ayy yo I'm just like my country[00:03:28]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:03:30]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:31]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:33]

No I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:36]

Yo I'm just like my country[00:03:38]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:03:40]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:41]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:43]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:46]

Ayy yo I'm just like my country[00:03:48]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:03:50]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:51]

I said I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:54]

No I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:03:56]

Ayy yo I'm just like my country[00:03:59]

I'm young scrappy and hungry[00:04:00]

And I'm not throwin' away my shot[00:04:01]

It's time to take a shot[00:04:04]
