How it began

The original cast of hamilton where performing for a little girl that missed her chance to see hamilton they performed the opening number alexander hamilton with the cast b and c joining in the middle of the number.

How does a bastard, orphan, son of a whore

And a Scotsman, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot

In the Caribbean by providence impoverished

In squalor, grow up to be a hero and a scholar?

The ten-dollar founding father without a father

Got a lot farther by working a lot harder

By being a lot smarter By being a self-starter

By fourteen, they placed him in charge of a trading charter

And every day while slaves were being slaughtered and carted away

Across the waves, he struggled and kept his guard up

Inside, he was longing for something to be a part of

The brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow, or barter

Then a hurricane came, and devastation reigned

Our man saw his future drip, dripping down the drain

Put a pencil to his temple, connected it to his brain

And he wrote his first refrain, a testament to his pain

They all sang in harmony as everyone could see each other on one screen, the girl could see all her favorite people daveed, emmy, solea, and many others, she looked into each one of their cams to see them singing...
