Burr: this man who have 6 kids and a wife who need him will not make a orphan of my 22 marriage daughter

[@emumaritza9173]

Burr:They won’t teach you this in your classes But look it up, Hamilton was wearing his glasses Why? If not to take deadly aim?|One Hour Earlier| Hamilton: Eliza had you've seen my contacts?

[@gramps3351]

Lmao I can just picture that Ham:LIZA! Liz:WHAT?! Ham:HAVE YOU SEEN MY CONTACTS? Liz:NO, WHY THE FUCK DO YOU NEED THEM? ITS 5 IN THE MORNING JUST GET YOUR ASS BACK TO BED! Ham:... Mkay *the duel was called off*

Tay Tay_04 i forgot about my hamilton phase gross

[@katherineknapp6604]

I'm crying

[@tangerine_ren]

Don't cry, don't you dare cry, I'M WARNING YOU- *damn it*

[@katkitty314]

Its sad how when Burr shoots Hamilton, the music plays kind of like when they met-- I'm about to cry, I don't blame Burr.. Its not his fault. He was just mad. But I kind of am! But it is still sad..

[@katherineknapp6604]

Same

[@MarkerMurker]

That's the Aaron Burr music, you'll hear it throughout the musical intertwined in other songs

[@bountheungbounnavong8084]

Fun Fact:Hamiltons last words Raise a glass to freedom are referencing to laurences last words From the song:The Story of Tonight

[@paigelarrabee3143]

The counting from the ensamble is so tense compaired to the original ten duel commandments. It's so effective!

[@paigemcnaughton6171]

Shuffle brought me from Its quiet uptown to blow us all away to Guns and ships to here Save me

[@carr0-0rrac81]

“He aims his pistol at the sky-“ “WAIT!!” That hit me right in the feels 😂😭

[@jeanettegro]

My feelings, I don't know if I want to cry or die

[@abirdofprey3813]

Fun fact Burr actually wasn't sad or regretful of killing Hamilton as reference he often said things like, "Oh, Alexander my friend who I shot."

[@dankhnw8]

Pink Llama Basically they were both a bunch of kids, one got the last laugh by ruining the other's Legacy while dying a hero the other one who survived....

[@bountheungbounnavong8084]

Also in Alexander Hamilton he says and me... I'm the damn fool that killed him like he didn't care PS:Maybe Hamilton was thinking of suicide? He aims his pistol at the sky bullets can't go that high🤔

[@cadyinnit3812]

Bountheung Bounnavong aiming your gun (or weapon ) in the sky is a sign instead of saying “I give up” and he also didn’t think killing Was the answer

[@nope1614]

Bountheung Bounnavong that means he does regret it he calls himself a fool

[@LoreCatan]

I actually think that makes it obvious he DID regret killing Hamilton, it's pretty self-deprecating. I know a lot of people gave him shit for saying that but I find it pretty funny. He's punishing himself enough as it is, people, he _knows_ he fucked up.

[@hyperbeam2196]

Im running out of time Im running And my times up *Wse* up eyes up Nice lyrics

[@varyak4698]

Yes gotta *wse* up

[@m.shaikh1425]

"When Alexander aimed at the sky, he may have been the first one to die But I'm the one who paid for it. I survived but I paid for it." Me: CAN YOU STOP **throws the millionth empty tissue box in the bin**

[@makaylaschrad8828]

Burrs words are so soft but also sharp and articulated ❤️is beautiful

[@TheTomelena]

YES! I've been waiting for this! Thanks so much.

[@varyak4698]

" He aims his pistol at the sky- *WAIT!* "

[@breannegreiner2435]

I almost cried when he said raise a glass to freedom cause he didn’t get to say something they can never take away

[@irenebitidi2498]

Hamilton: is this where it get me, on my feet several feet ahead of me Philip in heaven: ahah nice joke dad

[@lizzyforsdyke3833]

I was singing along to 'Death doesn't discriminate.....' and sobbing at the same time

[@vanvan-if5sf]

When he says "he will not make an orphan of my daughter" I'm like at least your child Is alive phillip died Aaron burr SIR

[@Cedarwoodbiome]

SMH L0S3R i belive hamilton had more kids than just phillip

[@vanvan-if5sf]

Camille The Gacha Queen Yeah he did their were others I remember I read that one went crazy after they lost Phillip

[@Cedarwoodbiome]

SMH L0S3R i’m getting into hamiliton and finding things out from the comments such as the thing you said

[@vanvan-if5sf]

Camille The Gacha Queen YOU’ll LOVE IT!

[@Wednesdaywoe1975]

Burr outlived his daughter by several years.

[@plomm3431]

This hit me right in the feels

[@3flyingdoves399]

This song gives me chills especially how scared Burr sounds when he says "WAIT!"

[@mymoralityisfries4345]

Okay but hear me out: Burr says that he is a terrible shot, right? What if he didn't MEAN to hit Hamilton in the ribs? What if he meant to shoot just right beside him so that it'd be like "Haha! That should scare him!" or if he aimed at the ribs because he thought he'd miss?

[@kianmagnaye8909]

Oh, yeah sure make me cry even more

[@NeilFisher49]

Burr:When alexander aimed at the sky. He may have been the first one to die. But i am the one who paid for it.

[@Starryclaw]

If you look at the picture when Hamilton gets shot, the picture changes.

[@3daniku]

WHY AM I EARLY

[@bridgetquerrard2737]

Who did William P. Van Ness sign on as?

[@river2263]

burrs second (his number 2 therefore the number 2 ends that phrase and start of the next)

[@adeepseafish1238]

LIN WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT

[@cricketwastaken]

One-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight-nine There are ten things you need to know (number one!) We rowed across the Hudson at dawn My friend, William P. Van Ness signed on as my (number two!) Hamilton arrived with his crew Nathaniel Pendleton and a doctor that he knew (number three!) I watched Hamilton examine the terrain I wish I could tell you what was happening in his brain This man has poisoned my political pursuits! Most disputes die and no one shoots (number four!) Hamilton drew first position Looking, to the world, like a man on a mission This is a soldier with a marksman's ability The doctor turned around so he could have deniability (five!) Now I didn't know this at the time But we were near the same spot my (your) son died, is that why? (six!) He examined his gun with such rigor? I watched as he methodically fiddled with the trigger Confession time? here's what I got My fellow soldiers'll tell you I'm a terrible shot (number eight!) Your last chance to negotiate Send in your seconds, see if they can set the record straight They won't teach you this in your classes But look it up, Hamilton was wearing his glasses Why? If not to take deadly aim? It's him or me, the world will never be the same I had only one thought before the slaughter This man will not make an orphan of my daughter (number nine!) Look him in the eye, aim no higher Summon all the courage you require Then count (one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight-nine, number-ten paces, fire!) I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory Is this where it gets me, on my feet, sev'ral 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'll 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 a 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 Raise a glass to freedom Wait! I strike him right between his ribs I walk towards him, but I am ushered away They row him back across the Hudson I get a drink I hear wailing in the streets (aah, aah, aah) Somebody tells me, "You'd better hide" (aah, aah, aah) They say Angelica and Eliza Were both at his side when he died Death doesn't discriminate Between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes History obliterates, in every picture it paints It paints me and all my mistakes When Alexander aimed at the sky He may have been the first one to die But I'm the one who paid for it I survived, but I paid for it Now I'm the villain in your history I was too young and blind to see I should've known I should've known the world was wide enough for both Hamilton and me The world was wide enough for both Hamilton and me

[@katherineknapp6604]

At the beginning of the song Burr was mad at the end he regrets his actions immediately.

I agree, after all the terrible things he did(despite being the founding father himself),he still got what he deserved.
