from HAMILTON: THE MUSICAL
God help and forgive me I wanna build Something that’s gonna Outlive me
Lin-Manuel Miranda
The joy of youth is that there is plenty of time to make a difference to the world if you want to.
These lyrics are from the song The Room Where It Happens, from Hamilton: The Musical, the stage musical written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, which tells the story of Alexander Hamilton, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. The song depicts the events of the Compromise of 1790, the historical political agreement which would shape the future of the country.
