My Shot - Hamilton - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"My Shot" is the third song from Act 1 of Lin Manuel-Miranda's hit hip-hop-incorporated 2015 musical Hamilton, which is based on the life of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. The song sees the musical's titular protagonist describe what they want from life and for American independence: "Don't be shocked when your hist'ry book mentions me / I will lay down my life if it sets us free / Eventually, you'll see my ascendancy." My Shot (Rise Up Remix)" In 2016, "My Shot" was reworked by The Roots with Busta Rhymes, Joell Ortiz, and Nate Ruess and featured on The Hamilton Mixtape. During the coronavirus pandemic, the song was reimagined by a group of California doctors calling themselves Vax'n 8 to encourage people to get the COVID-19 vaccine, with lyrics like "I am not throwing away my shot / I am not throwing away my shot" lending themselves to the concept of their song and video titled "My Shot: A COVID Vaccine Adaptation."
