Who Am I

I am  a woman who knows whats right 
and will act on it day and night
if someone needs me I am there
I will get there no matter where

I'm there for my family every day
I listen to what they have to say
I am Canadian proud and true
I am a person how about you?

Are you someone who runs and hide
someone who holds their fears inside?
Or are you someone who will stand strong
avoiding those who would stear you wrong?

Would you let a child stay on the street 
never knowing when they'll get to eat?
Or would you give them some change for food
taking the chance to do some good?

Please think of the answers you just gave
is that the way a person should behave?
Think hard and to yourself be true
I know what I'd do but how about you?
