Alexander Hamilton,
Everybody knows who he is,
Born as a orphan
Not very wealthy
Sitting on his front porch
Facing a tragedy

 

Left the island
To discover the world
Intelligent kid
Got a free admission

 

In college
Started to succeed
Discovered his home
The New York City

 

Studied Latin and Greek
Became sixteen
Went for doctory
Later saw this as a catastrophe
Changed his mind
Got into history
Worked hours on writing
He began to see this as a lighting


Alexander Hamilton
Everybody knows who he is,
Walked in Politics
And put himself between the bricks.

 

Battle of Lexington and Concord
Is what got him into this fight
Made up a drill unit
screwed people into it.

 

Taught to shoot
He thought he playing Kahoot
Not so easy
Was this big of a fight


He fought on the battlefield
This got him his feel
Became captain of the continental Army
never thought he was gonna have this good of a duty.


Who is this guy
How so lucky
From an orphan not wealthy
Became a man of the army.
His name is Alexander Hamilton
