about

Written and recorded in Malibu, this was released as a single/video.

lyrics

plastique loaded in the backseat
duded up and friendly
digging on the bar scene
falling at my feet

these bois think they should own the one thing
all the queer has made me
choosing what i'm wearing
taking off my makeup
i'm hitting up their scene

listen up
drag dreams aren't just made for switch scene
i can fake my gender
just as much a bender
even dressed as me
even dressed as she

hang back big man
you don't even see who you want to be
step back big man
you don't even keep the point you made for me

my face is hanging up some girl queen
practicing at prom
pointing out the wrong
making good by me

male hits just below my radar
hoping kings would jump far
to practice what they preach
instead of trying to teach

hang back big man
you don't even see who we're gonna be
step back big man
you don't even keep the point you made for me

19th and lexington the vortex of the trap we're in
19th and lexington the door was closed before open
19th and lexington where men will act just like real men

so how 'bout instead of ruling queens out
see it as a turnabout
that circles back to you
that started once with you
emulate your truth
shake hands
it starts with you
