I imagine death so much/It feels more like a memory/Is this where it gets me/On my feet, several feet ahead of me? I see it coming/Do I run or fire my gun or let it be?/There is no beat, no melody/Burr, my first friend, my enemy/Maybe the last face I ever see/If I throw away my shot/Is this how you remember me?/What if this bullet is my legacy?/Legacy. What is a legacy?/It's planting seeds in a garden/You never get to see/I wrote some notes/At the beginning of a song/Someone will sing for me/America, you great unfinished symphony/You sent for me/You let me make a difference/A place where even orphan immigrants can leave their fingerprints and rise up/I'm running out of time/I'm running and my time's up/Wise up, eyes up/I catch a glimpse of the other side/Laurens leads soldiers' chorus on the other side/My son is on the other side/He's with my mother on the other side/Washington is watching from the other side/Teach me how to say goodbye/Rise up. Rise up. Rise up./Eliza! My love, take your time./I'll see you on the other side.
