The problem is keeping the job
Sure, we fought to get the job
We fought to get through school
Persistence took us this far
But this isn't a battle for promotion
Or getting paid a living wage
We are still fighting for survival
As an easy target for rejection
With excuses of team dynamics
Because we just don't fit in
Culture forces us to the outside
It's easier to get rid of us
Than to make a space for us.
