What line(s) do you always forget?

[brainwane]

For those of you who have nearly memorized one or more of the songs, what's the one line you keep forgetting?

Me:

Alexander Hamilton: "Scammin' for every book he can get his hands on / plannin' for the future" (but I can always remember the next bit, "see him now as he stands on the bow of a ship")

My Shot: "tryin' to reach my goal" and "Foes oppose us, we take an honest stand"

Non-Stop: "Now for a strong central democracy"

Your Obedient Servant: "I don't wanna fight" and "You stand only for yourself"

(I will probably get to the "only a couple of lines missing" memorization point with One Last Time sometime but it's gonna cost me a lot of tears. Good laws under a free government! *cries*)

I'm curious about whether it's very individual or whether people's experiences overlap....

There are many places where I can understand the gist, but I get lost in the flow. (Besides Gil-Scott Heron, this is the only rap/hip-hop I've ever listened to. Thank heavens for Hamilton nudging me to learn more about it.)

The one I was hung up on for weeks was
"I'm just like my country, ? young scrappy and hungry."
Then boom a beat I couldn't count transformed into "I'm"
