I speak up. They call me triggered.
I voice my opinion. They call me outspoken.
I am smart. They call me useless.
I know what's right. They call me crazy.
I walk down the hallway. I get cat-called.
A man speaks up. They say he does the right thing.
A man voices their opinion. They say he is good for out country
A man is smart. They call him a genius.
A man knows what's right. They call him a leader.
A man walks down the hallway. They congratulate him for his achievements.
I was eight when I was called triggered.
I was 10 when I was called outspoken.
I was 12 when they called me crazy.
I was 12 when I was cat-called but I thought it was normal.
