"Wait For It" is one of my favorite songs from Hamilton. It is such a mood within the show. Delightfully when we arranged it, that mood took on a spooky, swampy vibe and we were able to hear such a gothic energy from it. It has the most "witchery" of any song on the album.

Lyrics:
THEODOSIA WRITES ME A LETTER EVERYDAY
I’M KEEPING HER BED WARM WHILE HER HUSBAND IS AWAY
HE’S ON THE BRITISH SIDE OF GEORGIA
HE’S TRYIN TO KEEP THE COLONIES IN LINE
HE CAN KEEP ALL OF GEORGIA
THEODOSIA SHE’S MINE
LOVE DOESN’T DISCRIMINATE
BETWEEN THE SINNERS AND THE SAINTS,
IT TAKES AND IT TAKES AND IT TAKES
AND WE KEEP LOVING ANYWAY
WE LAUGH AND WE CRY AND WE BREAK AND WE MAKE OUR MISTAKES
AND IF THERE’S A REASON I’M BY HER SIDE
WHEN SO MANY HAVE TRIED
THEN I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT
I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT
MY GRANDFATHER WAS A FIRE AND BRIMSTONE PREACHER
BUT THERE ARE THINGS THAT THE HOMILIES AND HYMNS WON’T TEACH YA
MY MOTHER WAS A GENIUS
MY FATHER COMMANDED RESPECT
WHEN THEY DIED, THEY LEFT NO INSTRUCTIONS
JUST A LEGACY TO PROTECT
DEATH DOESN’T DISCRIMINATE
BETWEEN THE SINNERS AND THE SAINTS,
IT TAKES AND IT TAKES AND IT TAKES
AND WE KEEP LIVING ANYWAY
WE RISE AND WE FALL AND WE BREAK AND WE MAKE OUR MISTAKES
AND IF THERE’S A REASON I’M STILL ALIVE
WHEN EVERYONE WHO LOVES ME HAS DIED
I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT
I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT
WAIT FOR IT
I AM THE ONE THING IN LIFE I CAN CONTROL
I AM INIMITABLE, I AM AN ORIGINAL
I’M NOT FALLING BEHIND OR RUNNING LATE
I’M NOT STANDING STILL, I AM LYING IN WAIT
HAMILTON FACES AN ENDLESS UPHILL CLIMB
HE HAS SOMETHING TO PROVE, HE HAS NOTHING TO LOSE.
HAMILTON’S PACE IS RELENTLESS, HE WASTES NO TIME.
WHAT IS IT LIKE IN HIS SHOES?
HAMILTON DOESN’T HESITATE
HE EXHIBITS NO RESTRAINT
HE TAKES AND HE TAKES AND HE TAKES
AND HE KEEPS WINNING ANYWAY
HE CHANGES THE GAME, HE PLAYS AND HE RAISES THE STAKES
AND IF THERE’S A REASON HE SEEMS TO THRIVE WHEN SO FEW SURVIVE,
THEN GOD DAMN IT, I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT.
I’M WILLING TO WAIT FOR IT.
LIFE DOESN’T DISCRIMINATE
BETWEEN THE SINNERS AND THE SAINTS
IT TAKES AND IT TAKES AND IT TAKES
AND WE KEEP LIVING ANYWAY
WE RISE AND WE FALL AND WE BREAK AND WE MAKE OUR MISTAKES
AND IF THERE’S A REASON I’M STILL ALIVE WHEN SO MANY HAVE DIED
THEN I’M WILLING TO
WAIT FOR IT
WAIT FOR IT
WAIT FOR IT
WAIT FOR IT
Wait For It - from the Broadway musical 'Hamilton’
