[00:00.93]After the war I went back to New York
[00:03.13]A-after the war I went back to New York
[00:05.88]I finished up my studies and I practiced law
[00:08.54]I practiced law Burr worked next door
[00:11.09]Even though we started at the very same time
[00:13.71]Alexander Hamilton began to climb
[00:16.36]How to account for his rise to the top
[00:19.38]Man the man is
[00:21.08]Non-stop
[00:22.26]Gentlemen of the jury I'm curious bear with me
[00:25.05]Are you aware that we're making history
[00:26.97]This is the first murder trial of our brand-new nation
[00:30.11]The liberty behind
[00:31.07]Deliberation non-stop
[00:32.49]I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt
[00:34.11]With my assistant counsel
[00:35.24]Co-counsel
[00:35.82]Hamilton sit down
[00:36.74]Our client Levi Weeks is innocent
[00:38.58]Call your first witness
[00:39.89]That's all you had to say
[00:41.06]Okay
[00:41.74]One more thing
[00:42.65]Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room hey
[00:45.12]Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room hey
[00:47.68]Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room hey
[00:50.29]Soon that attitude may be your doom aww
[00:53.00]Why do you write like you're running out of time
[00:55.49]Write day and night like you're running out of time
[00:58.05]Everyday day you fight like you're running out of time
[01:00.66]Keep on fighting
[01:01.84]In the meantime
[01:02.82]Non-stop
[01:03.80]Corruption's such an old song
[01:05.10]That we can sing along in harmony
[01:06.35]And nowhere is it stronger than in Albany
[01:08.74]This colony's economy's increasingly stalling and
[01:11.37]Honestly that's why public service
[01:12.70]Seems to be calling me
[01:14.05]I practiced the law I practically perfected it
[01:16.63]I've seen injustice in the world and I've corrected it
[01:19.14]Now for a strong central democracy
[01:20.66]If not then I'll be Socrates
[01:22.15]Throwing verbal rocks
[01:23.21]At these mediocrities aww
[01:24.38]Hamilton at the Constitutional Convention
[01:26.88]I was chosen for the Constitutional Convention
[01:29.50]There as a New York junior delegate
[01:32.06]Now what I'm gonna say may sound indelicate aww
[01:34.86]Goes and proposes his own form of government what
[01:37.66]His own plan for a new form of government what
[01:40.04]Talks for six hours
[01:40.98]The convention is listless
[01:42.71]Bright young man
[01:43.70]Yo who the eff is this
[01:45.07]Why do you always say what you believe hey
[01:47.79]Why do you always say what you believe hey
[01:50.37]Every proclamation guarantees
[01:52.87]Free ammunition for your enemies aww
[01:55.59]Why do you write like it's going out of style
[01:58.11]Write day and night like it's going out of style
[02:00.71]Everyday you fight like it's going out of style
[02:03.34]Do what you do
[02:06.73]Alexander
[02:07.37]Aaron Burr sir
[02:08.55]Well it's the middle of the night
[02:09.45]Can we confer sir
[02:11.03]Is this a legal matter
[02:11.78]Yes and it's important to me
[02:13.65]What do you need
[02:14.38]Burr you're a better lawyer than me
[02:16.43]Okay
[02:16.83]I know I talk too much I'm abrasive
[02:18.89]You're incredible in court
[02:20.09]You're succinct persuasive
[02:21.62]My client needs a strong defense
[02:23.23]You're the solution
[02:24.21]Who's your client
[02:24.88]The new US constitution
[02:27.12]No
[02:27.48]Hear me out
[02:27.90]No way
[02:28.65]A series of essays anonymously published
[02:31.41]Defending the document to the public
[02:33.21]No one will read it
[02:34.49]I disagree
[02:35.03]And if it fails
[02:35.61]Burr that's why we need it
[02:36.96]The constitution's a mess
[02:38.38]So it needs amendments
[02:39.67]It's full of contradictions
[02:41.04]So is independence
[02:42.31]We have to start somewhere
[02:43.77]No
[02:44.28]No way
[02:45.10]You're making a mistake
[02:46.25]Good night
[02:47.14]Hey
[02:47.90]What are you waiting for
[02:49.01]What do you stall for what
[02:50.45]We won the war
[02:51.65]What was it all for
[02:53.25]Do you support this constitution
[02:54.66]Of course
[02:55.37]Then defend it
[02:56.03]And what if you're backing the wrong horse
[02:58.29]Burr we studied and we fought and we killed
[03:00.70]For the notion of a nation we now get to build
[03:03.13]For once in your life take a stand with pride
[03:05.82]I don't understand how you stand to the side
[03:08.42]I'll keep all my plans
[03:10.54]Close to my chest wait for it wait for it wait
[03:14.11]I'll wait here and see
[03:15.51]Which way the wind
[03:17.14]Will blow
[03:18.45]I'm taking my time
[03:20.86]Watching the
[03:21.86]Afterbirth of a nation
[03:23.67]Watching the tension grow
[03:30.01]I am sailing off to London
[03:31.67]I am accompanied by someone
[03:33.47]Who always pays
[03:35.11]I have found a wealthy husband who will keep
[03:37.83]Me in comfort for all my days
[03:40.46]He is not a lot of fun but there's no one who
[03:43.47]Can match you for turn of phrase
[03:45.78]My Alexander
[03:47.95]Angelica
[03:48.89]Don't forget to write
[03:52.36]Look at where you are
[03:54.51]Look at where you started
[03:56.76]The fact that you're alive is a miracle
[03:59.25]Just stay alive that would be enough
[04:02.68]And if your wife could share a fraction of your time
[04:07.39]If I could grant you peace of mind
[04:10.96]Would that be enough
[04:12.57]Alexander joins forces with James Madison
[04:14.74]And John Jay to write a series of essays
[04:17.24]Defending the new united states constitution
[04:19.52]Entitled the federalist papers
[04:22.11]The plan was to write a total of twenty-five essays
[04:24.59]The work divided evenly among the three men
[04:28.19]In the end they wrote eighty-five essays
[04:30.98]In the span of six months
[04:33.50]John Jay got sick after writing five
[04:36.69]James Madison wrote twenty-nine
[04:38.93]Hamilton wrote the other fifty-one
[04:43.30]How do you write like you're running out of time
[04:45.68]Write day and night like you're running out of time
[04:48.30]Everyday you fight like you're running out of time
[04:50.86]Like you're running out of time
[04:52.08]Are you running out of time
[04:53.69]How do you write like tomorrow won't arrive
[04:56.16]How do you write like you need it to survive
[04:58.67]How do you write every second you're alive
[05:01.17]Every second you're alive
[05:02.41]Every second you're alive
[05:05.15]They are asking me to lead
[05:07.63]I am doing the best I can
[05:10.25]To get the people that I need
[05:13.06]I'm asking you to be my right hand man
[05:15.51]Treasury or state
[05:16.11]I know it's a lot to ask
[05:17.77]Treasury or state
[05:18.55]To leave behind the world you know
[05:20.31]Sir do you want me to run the
[05:21.46]Treasury or state department
[05:24.57]Treasury
[05:26.19]Let's go
[05:28.96]Alexander
[05:30.20]I have to leave
[05:31.35]Alexander
[05:32.82]Look around look around at how
[05:35.15]Lucky we are to be alive right now
[05:37.67]Helpless
[05:38.65]They are asking me to lead
[05:40.73]Look around isn't this enough
[05:43.11]He will never be satisfied
[05:44.65]What would be enough
[05:45.72]He will never be satisfied
[05:48.00]Satisfied
[05:49.43]Satisfied history has its eyes
[05:56.30]He will never be satisfied
[05:58.42]Satisfied
[05:59.69]Satisfied
