  2. Crispy ducked into a bookstore cause his rhyme pad was getting wet, and his favorite cafe was full
  3. He headed toward the back where the art and poetry sections were, it pulled
  4. Him in like a cell, Day1 was standing there, right in front of the poetry shelves
  5. When he pulled the rap sheet down, their eyes met over the top of the well
  6. And they ended up talking for 20 minutes, standing right there between the stacks
  7. Crispy learned that just like him, Day1 liked to rap and write diss tracks
  8. Eventually they realized they’d been standing in the same spot long enough for 3
  9. Other customers to squeeze past by them, Crispy said he's gonna get coffee
  10. And asked Day1 out on a date, so they walked 3 blocks to their local cafe
  11. Crispy ordered a vanilla bean creme frappe, and Day1 ordered an iced pumpkin spice latte
  12. They sat at a tiny table by the window with their knees occasionally brushing
  13. Neither pulled away, they had a conversation, and both were blushing
  14. At one point, Day1 reached across the table and touched the edge of Crispy's rhyme book
  15. He asked if he could see, Crispy hesitated cause his work was precious, but there was something in Day1's look
  16. That made him slide it over, Day1 paused on a rhyme that said
  17. "Time and time again, I keep having to hide from them, that I'm likin' men"
  18. Day1 looked into his eyes and told him how much he related, Crispy's heart was pumping elated
  19.  
  20. //Chorus//
  21. Got a leaf on your head and you can’t get rid of it
  22. Wear a hat everywhere cause some people are ignorant
  23. Get wasted, fall over, your piece gets knocked off
  24. So you hide in the bathroom and drink where no one can see
  25. Underneath, and catch a glimpse of your beautiful covered leaf
  26. No one wants to spend their life living in fear, no going near
  27. Welcome to the queer frontier
  28. You wanna be seen for who you are, but the world’s a vicious place, handing ya scars
  29. They burned you down to smear, but you can rebuild your house of cheer
  30. All the blood, sweat, and tears, but homie, you’re still standing here
  31. Welcome to the queer frontier
  32.  
  33. //Verse//
  34. When the cafe closed they walked outside, the streetlights were on
  35. Day1 told Crispy he was tired of pretending, Crispy said "then don't pretend" and he stopped the self con
  36. Their first kiss tasted like lavender, Crispy's hand came up to cradle Day1's jaw
  37. With tenderness, and when they pulled apart, they were both smiling and in awe
  38. Day1 rested his forehead against Crispy's, "I want to see the rest of your rhymes"
  39. "And I want to play you the song I wrote last month that didn’t have a name until tonight”
  40. Crispy said he wanted to hear it, then said he wanted to write about the way Day1 looks when he's talking about books
  41. They exchanged numbers, it was just the two of them under the thunder
  42. Experiencing the beautiful miracle of having found each other
  43. That night, Crispy opened his rhyme pad and wrote about Day1's smile
  44. That night, Day1 sat in his recording booth and made a song about Crispy's style
  45. He took a train ride with Day1 this weekend, and something hit him hard
  46. They were holding hands under their coats, heads resting against each other while they watched
  47. A movie, just two people in love, but every time someone walked by, they’d pull away, sit up straight
  48. Act like bein’ just friends was their brand, and Crispy felt like a criminal for holding his boyfriend's hand
  49.  
  50. //Chorus//
  51. Got a leaf on your head and you can’t get rid of it
  52. Wear a hat everywhere cause some people are ignorant
  53. Get wasted, fall over, your piece gets knocked off
  54. So you hide in the bathroom and drink where no one can see
  55. Underneath, and catch a glimpse of your beautiful covered leaf
  56. No one wants to spend their life living in fear, no going near
  57. Welcome to the queer frontier
  58. You wanna be seen for who you are, but the world’s a vicious place, handing ya scars
  59. They burned you down to smear, but you can rebuild your house of cheer
  60. All the blood, sweat, and tears, but homie, you’re still standing here
  61. Welcome to the queer frontier
  62.  
  63. And if they were straight, no one would think twice, he’s still looking over his shoulder, still hoping no one’s comin’
  64. Still hiding the most natural thing in the world, loving someone
  65. By the time they reached their stop, Crispy had tears in his eyes
  66. Not from sadness, but from anger that we still live in a world where love has to be hidden with a disguise
  67.  
  68. Got a leaf on your head and you can’t get rid of it
  69. Wear a hat everywhere cause some people are ignorant
  70. Get wasted, fall over, your piece gets knocked off
  71. So you hide in the bathroom and drink where no one can see
  72. Underneath, and catch a glimpse of your beautiful covered leaf
  73. No one wants to spend their life living in fear, no going near
  74. Welcome to the queer frontier
  75. You wanna be seen for who you are, but the world’s a vicious place, handing ya scars
  76. They burned you down to smear, but you can rebuild your house of cheer
  77. All the blood, sweat, and tears, but homie, you’re still standing here
  78. Welcome to the queer frontier
