Hamilton doesn't hesitate, he exhibits no restraint and he takes and he takes and he takes
    C                     Am             Bb
And he keeps winning anyway, changes the game he plays and he raises the stakes
    Am                  C                       Bm
And if there's a reason he seems to thrive when so few survive, then goddamnit
