Miranda, Lin-Manuel - The Money Lyrics






[Narrator:]
The next day, Justin brought a rolled-up baggie of marijuana to school for Naomi

[Justin:]
And I was like, oh my god, I'm actually gonna do this. So we was in class, and I sat down right next to her. And she was like...

[Naomi:]
Justin, do you have it?

[Justin:]
Yeah, I do. And I was like, you know what? We're going to wait for a few. Because I didn't want to be like, oh hey, and just slide it in her hand or whatever. So we waited

[Justin:]
And she was like...

[Naomi:]
Okay, put it in my purse

[Justin:]
So I slid it right in there. And then she was like...

[Naomi:]
Okay, here. Take the money. Justin, take the money

[Justin:]
I don't want your money. I got this just for you. Keep your money. There's nothing I won't do for you. I'll come through for you every time - just in time

[Naomi:]
Justin, listen
Please, just take the money

You're making me feel guilty. Take the money

You really did come through for me

There's only one last thing you need to do for me
Take the money
Take the money
Take the money

The teacher's coming
Take this money, Justin

We aren't done. Please take this money, Justin

Take the money

Take the money. Take this money, Justin.

[Justin:]
Naomi, I know there's a reason you were transferred here to me
Naomi, I know there's a reason. This isn't luck, it's destiny
Naomi
You know me
I will be there just in time
Every time
Anytime

I don't want your money

I got this just for you

Keep your money

There's nothing I won't do for you. I'll come through for you

Every time
Anytime
Just in time.

Miranda, Lin-Manuel The Money Comments
  1. G.... M....

    The tape on the floor makes the stage manager in me so happy.

  2. L.... !....

    naomi: ay you got some dope
    justin: nobut ill go get some and give them to you , making me a drug dealer
    comment section: *SHE MANIPULATED HIM!!!111!*
    friends: why should we do this for you and get you the lil sum sum kwim
    justin: yeah but shes hot so-
    comment section: *INNOCENT LITTLE BOYO*

  3. H.... L....

    Regardless of the story, I love Naomi's voice.

  4. M.... L....

    So, she made a guy, who had zero experience with drugs before, buy her weed and then she was like: he’s a drug dealer!!! Is she stupid or just an asshole?

  5. P.... C....

    Ok Ok Ok as much as Naomi is a JERK I now understand her motives. Ready?


    Naomi saw how much of a nice and kind guy Justin was but she knew she couldn't fall for him for obvious reasons. She DID want to get him in trouble as a reason to HATE him so she wouldn't fall for him. That's why in the money song she says,
    "You're making me feel guilty take the money."
    And in the epilogue where she says,
    "these kids need to learn there are, consequences in life."
    Not consequences for dealing the drugs, but falling in love.

  6. P.... C....

    EvErYbOdY's GoT a CoUsIn WhO cAn HoOk ThEm Up WiTh SoMeThInG

  7. D.... T....

    She literally got him to sell drugs then turned him in that’s messed up
    And stupid

  8. k.... ....

    i live in palm beach county

  9. Y.... b....

    This chick pisses me off so bad. She literally set him up and took advantage of his feelings

  10. S.... O....

    Aw man... Justin had honor roll and everything... Naomi ruined his life...

  11. d.... v....

    why they gotta make naomi look like that tho

  12. O.... ....

    this would happen on the one day i decide to not go to school

  13. S.... E....

    2020 anyone???

  14. M.... G....

    Naomi exists

    Everyone: She is a bitch b-I-c-t-h

  15. s.... m....

    I want to see more of this! ❤

  16. R.... H....

    The spin Anthony does around 7:50 is so clean.

  17. k.... c....

    if only he went to school in jersey


    “everything is legal in jersey”

    k.... c....

    Ahaha- I gotchu. That's funny😂😂

    k.... c....

    New Jersey, not Jersey

  18. S.... S....

    Naomi: Drugs hit really close to home

    Also Naomi: *Makes Justin look bad so she can catch him selling drugs when she knows he would never do that normally*

    Me: Mmhm girl, sure, drugs hit close to home. You are basically making drug dealers but sure, ok!

  19. C.... ....

    I’m confused is the Justin and Niomis story actually what happened

  20. W.... ....

    _gerard appreciation comment_

    W.... ....

    Wolf.y who’s Gerard???

    W.... ....

    Mariah Lewiz the shortest cousin

  21. s.... a....

    Does anyone have a real update on this story, I always hope Justin didn't suffer to much after all this. And I hope one day he gets that conversation.
    And most of all I hope the real Naiomi see's this musical and feels absolutely like shit!!!

  22. J.... ....

    Screw you Naomi, why you gotta do Justin like this? Frick you

  23. k.... ....

    anthony gets hurt: the musical

  24. N.... G....

    At 10:16 you can see Anthony mouth oh sh*t like perfect

  25. M.... m....

    The only time Lin wears a tuxedo

  26. M.... m....

    So She,a police officer, peer pressured him to sell drugs that he did not even have

  27. -.... S....

    Are we not gonna talk about the fact that Gerard Canonico is in this?

  28. L.... l....

    I feel like Anthony forgot his prop phone

  29. G.... G....

    Tell me why he reminds me of Pete Davison at a much younger age

  30. A.... N....

    Wow. The cop posing as "Naomi" seems like a self-righteous bitch. She didn't arrest a drug dealer; she manipulated a kid into selling drugs one time just so she could arrest him. Yes, this is an obvious statement, but the police can get away with some fucked-up things in the name of "preserving the law".

    A.... N....

    That’s what happens when you privatise prisons

  31. F.... ....

    Man.........Justin’s cousins are everywhere 😂

  32. [.... S....

    Shipping lams takes 5%

    Listening to the Hamilton soundtrack takes up 21%

    ANTHONY TAKES, THE OTHER 51%

  33. P.... P....

    UGHH stupid Naomi she used him! My boy Justin was just in love and she makin him sell drugs

  34. a.... s....

    Can we just talk about how amazing Anthony's voice is

  35. a.... s....

    There's a reason why John and Alexander's friendship looks so real on stage that's because Anthony and Lin are literally bestfriend in real life

  36. R.... ....

    AT 10:42 IS IT JUST ME OR IS THAT THE TEN DUEL COMMANDMENTS THING

  37. A.... M....

    Ok I'm actually gonna cry this musical is so short but I'm so emotionally attached to Justin and hate Naomi now

  38. A.... 5....

    8:36 Why has nobody mentioned the same duel sound effect from Hamilton is in this?

    A.... 5....

    10:41 too

  39. M.... ....

    What I love most about this is how the “adult” cop falls asleep in class, copies homework, and drinks at the end of the day because of the stress. But you know...kids are lazy...there’s nothing wrong with the school system

  40. P.... G....

    I still think shes a bitch

  41. E.... C....

    This is amazing

  42. A.... S....

    1:41 *yall welcome*

  43. C.... W....

    Most famous for his musical In the Heights


    Lin: Just you wait, Just you wait

  44. W.... y....

    21 chump street: If Evan Hansen actually sold drugs

  45. B.... S....

    Didn’t Naomi kinda force Phillip, wait not Phillip, JUSTIN, to take the money???

  46. E.... C....

    "Naomi, I know there's a reason you got transferred here to meEEE~"

    *yeah to put you in J A I L*

  47. J.... G....

    Bruh *FUCK* Naomi😠

  48. H.... B....

    On the thumbnail, I seriously thought that Justin was Evan Hansen

  49. Z.... A....

    Doesn’t seem like she’s catching drug dealers seems like she’s making them emotionally manipulating this guy ruining lives 🤨

  50. I.... ....

    If Anthony Ramos have problems getting the girl, everyone got some real issuesss....

  51. V.... B....

    I know this is old but, I keep reading about people very angry at Naomi and, I totally get it, but at the same time, Justin was the one who decided to find the drug. He made his decision, knowing it was illegal, going against his moral beliefs for a girl he had just met. And he was also over eighteen. You can’t excuse him saying he was in love and he was just a child, he could have said no. She’s right saying ‘These kids need to learn that there are consequences in life’, this was just one week of jail but, what if a girl he liked asked him for something worse? Would he have done it anyway?
    I mean, I’m not excusing every action she made, bc she could have just NOT asked him.. but, at the end it was HIS decision.
    But that’s just my opinion 😅 feel free to disagree.

  52. n.... c....

    Wait so she basically manipulated Justin into selling her drugs. He wasn't even the problem though

  53. m.... s....

    anyone here post in the heights trailer?

  54. H.... h....

    Wow they were in Hamilton together, they were in 21 Chump Street and now he is going to be in Lin’s new movie I adore them

  55. �.... �....

    8:49 *starts thinking about which cousin of mine is the drug dealer*

  56. A.... G....

    6ix9ine: I know Naiomi’s real name.

  57. S.... K....

    10:28 Alex headbanging

  58. Z.... F....

    I JUST REALISED *ALEX BONIELLO* IS IN THIS TOO????!!!!

  59. S.... D....

    and ceo of simpnation goes to....

  60. T.... B....

    LiN "manual” mIrAnDa

  61. B.... P....

    Naomi: drugs nono
    Also naomi: haha yes alcohol funny

  62. R.... S....

    That sounds to me like dude was set up. That’s tuff

    R.... S....

    because we was. that's why this got so big, it was unfair, he deserved to go to those colleges and he deserved to be succesful. and the worst part is that this story is real. This actually happened, you can look it up!

  63. C.... B....

    Justin LaBoy walked so Evan Hansen could run

  64. E.... ....

    She was a light skinned-ed
    Puerto Rican Dominican
    Long hair mature in the body like
    ⬆️🙌✊✊ *Woah*

  65. T.... B....

    she didn't catch an active drug dealer.... she manipulated him into one


    she should've stopped asking him for drugs and moved on to someone else as soon as he said i dont do drugs

  66. C.... P....

    I love how he sais "Manuel" as in "manual". Like I know he is the writer but man, that gives him a whole nother meaning XD

  67. b.... ....

    perfect

  68. B.... _....

    Moral of the story: Don't be a simp fellas

  69. s.... a....

    Me: Oh, seems interesting.
    After the tiny musical: This is legit my 2nd favorite musical wtf

    Hamiltons first couGh
    edit: its probably because lin wrote it 😳

  70. M.... T....

    I feel like the final time she says "I am doing my job, I am doing it right, I am making life safer one school at a time" since she doesn't say " _if_ I am doing my job, and I am doing it right, I am making life safer one school at a time" she's trying to convince herself that what she's doing is right. Because it looked like she was actually starting to form the smallest bond with Justin. I think she felt guilty. She was trying to tell herself she was just doing her job. But that's just my interpretation.

  71. v.... g....

    Lin's laugh at the beginning and his little smile to Anthony throughout has my ENTIRE HEART. <3

  72. U.... P....

    Justin: I don't want your money.
    Naomi: Sh*t

  73. p.... ....

    alex boniello i see u

  74. S.... C....

    Maybe we should do something with the over funded police departments

  75. A.... p....

    Justin: Tell me who I gotta be for you to be with me
    Naomi: *a drug dealer*

  76. G.... R....

    Naomi framed Justin on purpose
    Exhibit A
    I'm pretty sure she knew he didn't smoke:
    " you smoke weed? "
    " *no I dont* but if that's what you need "
    and
    " is *your dealer* a student? "
    correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think dealers would commonly have dealers

    Exhibit B
    she gave him a harsher punishment
    " do you want it now? "
    " see you at *school* "
    I'm pretty sure if she's a cop she would know selling at school is worse

    Exhibit C
    She pressured him into selling drugs
    she asked him if he smoked weed when she knew he would do anything for her,
    and throughout the WHOLE "take the money" she pressures him into taking the money which is a crime.
    Thank you for attending my Ted talk

  77. L.... F....

    Lin-Manuel Miranda: Adapts a true story into a really important commentary on the current state of drug policing

    Stans in the comments: hahah I'm so quirky, Daddy Lin wrote Hamilton 📝, you know Hamilton? 🎶 I've listened to Hamilton 🔉 🎧 Haha elizzaaaaaaa and Peggy XD can't believe they did this to John Laurens 😢 Philip Hamilton taken too soon 🙏

  78. A.... G....

    Isn't that entrapment? Like couldn't they have used him as an informant and not ruined him with a felony? I mean in real life, cuz this is based on a real life case, right?
    Also, Anthony Ramos sounding like he's crying without actually crying makes me wanna cry for his character. So super talented.

    A.... G....

    Pretty sure it technically is entrapment... but hey they got the "drug dealers" 🙄🙄😒 I feel like Justin should have been given an actual chance to get out of this.

  79. A.... ....

    This is Philip in kings college 😂

  80. L.... W....

    That ending destroys me every time. The destruction to his future that woman caused. Incomprehensible .

  81. A.... S....

    I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying

  82. E.... ....

    I just noticed the beat to cousin is the same as the beat when they get arrested

    E.... ....

    You only just realised this... Yikes

    E.... ....

    @donny in all fairness it was my second time listening to it

  83. z.... D....

    He cop really peeved me
    She said drugs made her life miserable so instead of helping reduce the damage she just found a weak kid and manipulated him

    He had a life but now it's over

    The Justice system is broken and people ignore it beacuse it has some good parts

    Imagine you grow up struggling with money then you find drugs as a salvation instead of reform you get sent to a prison beacuse criminals never change and deserve a life of constantly being scrutinized for being born in the wrong town

    The war on drugs caused death and despair to drug addicts who didn't get help because they had been afraid

  84. 1.... I....

    7:30 to 7:58 Is so sad..He's so sweet and cute and she is just taking advantage of his love for her...Im watching it over and over and again its honesty terrible but then the cousin song comes on

  85. E.... R....

    BRO ANTHONY RAMOS GERARD CANONICO LIN MANUEL MIRANDA AND ALEX BONIELLO!!!!!!

  86. I.... l....

    Doing your job right isn't forcing a good kid who's never bought/sold drugs to get you drugs cuz he fell in love with you and then ruining his life😳😳

  87. A.... R....

    When they say, "U can buy it for $5" I was like but I can look it up on you tube. XD!!

  88. C.... !....

    *Rich sweating* oh shiiiiiiiii-

  89. A.... R....

    Yeah gotta love uH ~reads smudged writing on hand~ Lin *Manual* Miranda

  90. t.... c....

    Can I point out that one of the 3 guys has a weed shirt and Naomi is suspicious of Justin!

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

    I am doing my job


    Your assignment is finding who’s buying and selling drugs so she has to go to jail

  92. A.... :....

    This performance was absolutely amazing, I loved it so much and just reminded me of what I love to do!!💖💖

  93. K.... S....

    Anthony: Like woah-

    Me: ANTHONY! I THOUGHT YOU AND LIN WERE TOGETHER!

  94. F.... I....

  95. t.... y....

    Leave my John Laurens alone , Naomi

  96. s.... s....

  97. G.... ....

  98. E.... G....

    Roses are red, violets are blue, the part you're looking for is 1:42
