Part of the song: “Burn”

  1. For the record, this is a quote from the song “First Burn” Lin Manuel-Miranda’s first attempt at the song “Burn” from Hamilton: An American Musical. “First Burn” never appears in the musical itself but was released later as a song in April of 2018

      1. The lyric part quoted above is actually in both songs. But for example my favorite part of ‘First Burn’: “Your enemy whispers, so you have to scream” is not in the musical version of ‘Burn.’
