Miranda, Lin-Manuel - Let It Go Lyrics






[Alexander:]
What in the hell was that?
What in the hell are you doing downtown?
Don't you know that Burr is going to run against your father to humiliate me and try to bring us down?
I will not let our family be embarrassed like this
I'll grab a pen and paper, let the whole world know
You swing at my family you better not miss
You better have another punch to throw

[Eliza:]
You could let it go
Stay alive for me
Let it go
Live to fight another day
People will always be critical
They'll make the personal political
They'll try to knock you off your pedestal, your pinnacle
Let other people be cynical
Let it go
You're smiling because you know I'm right

[Alexander:]
Ha!

[Eliza:]
And you know if the president were here he would tell you the same thing

[Alexander:]
No, the president's not here..

[Washington:]
I heard about Burr
You didn't kill him did you?

[Alexander:]
Were you here this whole time?

[Washington:]
Let it go
Stay alive for me

[Washington/Eliza:]
Let it go

[Eliza:]
Let it slide right by

[Washington:]
Let it slide right by

[Eliza:]
You don't have to bring a gun to a knife fight
It's not a case of your money or your life, right?

[Washington:]
You know you really oughta listen to your wife, right?

[Alexander:]
I know

[Eliza:]
So let it go

[Burr:]
Talk less!

[Ensemble:]
Burr!

[Burr:]
Smile more!

[Ensemble:]
Burr!

[Burr:]
Don't let 'em know what you're against or what you're for!

[Ensemble:]
Burr!

[Burr:]
Shake hands with him!

[Ensemble:]
Burr!

[Burr:]
Charm her!

[Ensemble:]
Ladies and gentlemen welcome Senator Aaron Burr!

[Eliza:]
Ooooh

[Washington:]
Let everybody know
You can take a body blow
Let everybody know
You can learn to let it go

[Eliza:]
Look around, look around at how
Lucky you are to be alive right now

[Washington:]
Let everybody know
You can take a body blow
Let everybody know
You can take a body blow
Let everybody know
You can take a body blow
Let everybody know
You can take a body blow

[Eliza:]
Look around, look around at how
Lucky you are to be alive right now
If somebody tries to lay you low

[Eliza/Washington:]
Let it go

Miranda, Lin-Manuel Let It Go Comments
  1. G.... B....

    Alex: No, the presidents not here!


    Washington: *Kicks down door* I heard about burr

  2. W.... ....

    I always feel, listening to the off-broadway version of the songs, that Hamilton was originally meant to be much more of a comedy than it ended up being.

  3. g.... a....

    My dumbass thought the Hamilton cast sang let it go from frozen

  4. C.... C....

    Hamilton: the presidents not here soo...
    Washington: wHATS POPPIN FRICKERS!

  5. S.... B....

    Frozen is quaking

  6. j.... ....

    i love how washington just appears out of nowhere just to tell his son to just fucking chill

  7. P.... C....

    If I were to choose two songs to be added to the album, it would definitely be this and Dear Theodosia Reprise (bcs I need another reason to cry)

  8. K.... M....

    Eliza is the original Elsa

  9. l.... 4....

    I thought Eliza was doing a cover of let it go 😂

  10. G.... M....

    Even Hamilton's confused why Washington's there

  11. u.... m....

    cha cha slide?

  12. m.... ....

    ELIZA RLLY A LEGEND

  13. S.... ....

    elsa is that you

  14. L.... G....

    Let it Go from Hamilton Is way better than Frozen’s Let it Go
    ______________________________________
    Change my Mind

  15. F.... F....

    I H E A R D A B O U T B U R R

  16. J.... R....

    *why do you write like you’re running out of time?*

  17. J.... R....

    Aw I wish they kept this song it musical...

  18. A.... R....

    This doesn't sound like George Washington

    A.... R....

    It’s not Chris playing Washington in the workshops, I believe it’s Isiah Johnson

  19. a.... r....

    Let it go, let it go, can’t hold it back anymore.

  20. S.... ....

    Lin: nice should put this in the pl-

    Disney: how about let it go for frozen?

  21. l.... !....

    This gives me Banana Fish vibes

  22. L.... B....

    My favorite parts about this songs

    “Your smiling because you know I’m right.” “HA”

    “Washington’s not here”

    **Door slams open**

    Washington- WHAT DID I MISS MY SON

  23. C.... D....

    Were you here the whole time?

  24. S.... t....

    Screw Frozen, this is where it’s at

  25. J.... D....

    Gosh Burr, how much did you have to drink

  26. A.... H....

    I would like to be the kind of genius whos cut content is like this

  27. N.... G....

    Washington and Eliza the friendship I now want to see

  28. F.... i....

    Y was this cut

  29. G.... I....

    frozen 2 looks good so far

  30. Z.... H....

    I don’t like how this did not get into the musical

  31. A.... S....

    Eliza: And if the president were he would tell you the same thing!
    Alexander: No the president’s not here-
    George: *Slides out from under bed*

    *I HEARD ABOUT BURR*

  32. T.... Y....

    wait whats this

  33. N.... C....

    While not bad, this would stand out as a weaker song in the play. As well as the fact that it's a little superfluous since without it this part of the story still gets across. I can see why it was cut.

  34. S.... ....

    Alexander-No the presidents not her-
    Washington- *I heard about Burr*

  35. D.... 6....

    When would this song be placed?

  36. T.... ....

    I thought this was the Hamilton cast covering Let It Go. I also read Eliza as Elsa.




    I’m so stupid. 😂

  37. S.... L....

    Phillipa is always amazing

  38. E.... D....

    Hearing a non-Chris Jackson Washington is really weird

  39. S.... K....

    Not gonna lie, I listen to this to calm down if I'm pissed at someone. 😂

  40. G.... G....

    So, did Philip NOT come with Eliza? He did not speak in this, even though in the extended Schyler Defeated, he was with Eliza

  41. A.... T....

    I never say the mojo at the end until now😂

  42. I.... W....

    When I first knew about this song,I thought Alexander or Eliza is gonna do a cover of Let it go from Frozen XDD

    But I wished that this song wasn't cut from the musical (It's still great though) because it sounds catchy :P

    I.... W....

    That would have been nice if they did a cover of that. It would have also been nice if it nice if it was in the musical. Official one I mean.

  43. H.... J....

    Let It Go
    Other People: FROZEN!
    Me: HAMILTON!

  44. A.... S....

    Let it go! Let it! Can’t hold it back anymore! Let it-.............wait a second.....

  45. G.... S....

    Washington just pops in like “yo”

  46. m.... f....

    Elsa
    Eliza


    coincidence?
    I THINK NOT!

  47. C.... T....

    I really wish this wasn't cut because this is EXACTLY WHAT ALEX NEEDED TO HEAR IN LIKE EVERY OTHER SONG.

  48. A.... C....

    Burr: *Drinks shots before he goes to run for president*

  49. A.... C....

    The president's not here!
    *George slides out from under the bed* *I h e a r d a b o u t b u r r*

  50. J.... B....

    My favorite is Hamilton going off in the beginning

  51. h.... ....

    Who's trying to not cry 😭😭😭
    Where was this all My life?

  52. M.... M....

    WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS SONG

  53. J.... ....

    Unpopular opinion: It's actually not that good and it's good that it was cut

  54. A.... H....

    Poor Alexander Hamilton, his common sense is missing in action... And he’s facing Aaron Burr, with his own faction.

  55. J.... M....

    WHY ISN’T THIS ON THE FUCKING SOUNDTRACK

  56. R.... ....

    0:49


    You didn't kill him did you?

    Me *WHEEZE*

  57. k.... E....

    Eliza:#weres a blue dress
    Hamilton: pls no
    Eliza:LET IT GO LET IT GO CANT HOLD IT BACK ANYMORE
    washington : wow.
    Hamilton: why me

  58. a.... u....

    *Eliza and Alex casually having an argument in their bedroom*

    George Washington [Crawling out from under the bed]: Hello

  59. J.... J....

    I didn't read the whole title. I thought this was a parody of Let it go from Frozen and that's why I clicked on it. Not disappointed though.

  60. J.... M....

    Did they get rid of this song in Hamilton when I watched it this song never happened

  61. K.... T....

    they cut the song because Lin was afraid Elsa would report it for plagiarism

  62. C.... Z....

    Okay, but the last line ( 2:05 ) I heard three people singing or is it just me?

  63. A.... E....

    *you didn’t kill him, did you?*

  64. E.... R....

    Eliza and Elsa could be best friends

  65. E.... M....

    Why did they take this out????????????? It’s so goood

  66. B.... D....

    How come this isn’t in the musical?

  67. M.... s....

    “Stay alive for me”
    *gets shot*

  68. P.... P....

    “They’ll make the personal political” is such a stunning line, and feels so accurate with politicians trying to ban abortion.

  69. V.... &....

    "Stay alive for me..."
    Said:me, to Philip before Gorge Eacker. This MUTHERFUC-

  70. J.... M....

    Washington’s voice sounds a little too deep

  71. p.... ....

    Not his best song lol

  72. A.... J....

    Eliza sounds like Elsa

  73. K.... A....

    Washing machine just came out of fucking no where

  74. L.... ....

    *I H E A R D A B O U T B U R R R*

  75. S.... P....

    ....that voice is philip schuyler

  76. D.... J....

    You didn’t kill him did you?

  77. M.... O....

    who else loves burrs part??

    M.... O....

    Michele Obama i feel like u mean who doesn’t??? its amazing

  78. F.... ....

    The Hamiltons having an argument in the bedroom about politics
    A.Ham: "The president isn't here!"
    Washington: *Rolls out from under bed* "I heard about Burr!"

  79. K.... G....

    is this a different person singing as washington?? it sounds very different

  80. h.... ....

    "I heard about Burr" kills me every time. I just imagine Washington creeps out of a dark alley just to say that. I haven't heard this jn a while sp you know it hit me like a truck

  81. N.... L....

    Who cares about Elsa?

    *WE HAVE OUR TRUE QUEEN ELIZA*

  82. O.... F....

    What off the Broadway has different song's where can I even hear them? Can I still be a fan even though I haven't heard the off Broadway ;-;

  83. M.... U....

    WASHINGTON HITTING THE HIGH NOTES THOUGH 😂😂👌

  84. E.... S....

    When will Hamilton learn that your wife is always right!!!

  85. c.... t....

    Washington:I HEARD ABOUT BURR you didn't kill him did you
    Hamilton:were you here this whole time
    Washington:....... ummn
    let it go stay alive for me

  86. L.... T....

    This is my favorite song ever! It's so beautiful! I could listen to it 24/7

  87. C.... M....

    washington during one last ride telling hamilton to grab a pen and write
    i don't think the reynold pamplet is what he meant

  88. S.... M....

    is that Pippa?

    S.... M....

    @Kaylee Green okay! thanks

  89. p.... ....

    I HEARD ABOUT BURR
    -Washington

  90. M.... ....

    What the hell is up with Washingtons voice

    M.... ....

    i just asked the same thing!!

  91. A.... M....

    Why is this me to my bf , calming him down and his bro is with me. Then someone who is trying to get with me and pissing us off. Never thought a song could be relatable

  92. L.... ....

  96. D.... W....

    Eliza is the next Elsa or is Elsa the next Eliza?

  97. L.... A....
