Who Am I

Am i the man my parents wanted me to be or am i the man the streets made of me 
Am i the father i no i can be or am i the father my kids never see am i the husband 
That love his wife or am i the one that cheat without thinking twice
  am i the man that pack his bags and head south  or am i the man that put food in 
His kids mouth who ever i am that’s who i will be but i no this much i love my 
Family
