Lyrics What Else Can I Do? - Lin-Manuel Miranda

I just made something unexpected
Something sharp something new
It's not symmetrical or perfect
But it's beautiful and it's mine
What else can I do?
Bring it in, bring it in
Good talk, bring it in, bring it in (What else can I do?)
Let's walk, bring it in, bring it in
Free hugs, bring it in, bring it in

I grow rows and rows of roses
Flor de mayo, by the mile
I make perfect practiced poses
So much hides behind my smile
What could I do if I just grew what I was feelin' in the moment?
(Do you know where you're going? Whoa!)
What could I do if I just knew it didn't need to be perfect?
It just needed to be
And it let me be

A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs (Big!)
Hanging vines (This is fine)
Palma de cera fills the air as I climb
And I push through
What else can I do?

Can I deliver us a river of sundew?
Careful, it's carnivorous, a little just won't do
I wanna feel the shiver of something new
I am so sick of pretty, I want something true, don't you?

You just seem like your life's been dream
Since the moment you opened your eyes
(How far do these roots go down?)
All I know are the blossoms you grow
But it's awesome to see how you rise
How far can I rise? (How far can you rise?)
Through the roof (Through the roof)
To the skies (To the skies)
Let's go! (Let's go!)

A hurricane of jacarandas
Strangling figs (go!)
Hanging vines (grow!)
Palma de cera fills the air as I climb
And I push through!
What else? What else?
What can you do when you are deeply, madly, truly in the moment?
(Seize the moment, keep goin'!)
What can you do when you know who you wanna be is imperfect?
But I'll still be okay (Hey everybody clear the way!)
I'm comin' through with tabebuia (she's coming with that boo-yah!)
Making waves (making waves)
Changing minds (you've changed mine)
The way is clearer 'cause you're here and well I owe this all to you
What else can I do?
Show me what you can do!
What else can I do?
There's nothing you can't do!
What else can I do?!
