IV. Identity
Read the full manifesto, including previous chapters, here
Don’t be shocked
when your hist’ry book mentions me
I will lay down my life if it sets us free
Eventually, you’ll see my ascendancy
And I am not throwing away my shot!
I am not throwing away my shot!
I am not throwing away my shot!
Hey yo, I’m just like my country
I’m young, scrappy and hungry
And I’m not throwing away my shot!
It’s time to take a shot!
-Alexander Hamilton (in Hamilton), Hero Generation
