    That moment when you were on a Hamilton rampage, but then you do a throwback and remember that In the Heights is still the flippin' shit.

      I remember listening to this album in my car while I was leaving home for the first time after college graduation, moving eight hours away. I was feeling a lot of different things that day, and that song made me cry so much. It's funny going back and watching this so many years later and remembering that.
