Troy final good byes

Troy was a man of many things he was a father, brother, husband and most of all a friend to others. Like most things people relied on him mostly on money and maybe some support here and there. All troy was trying to do was bring home the bacon and most people wouldn’t survive without him. Troy was stretch to the fullest on make sure everything in the house hold was being taken care of.
 “Troy Like you? I go out here every morning….. Bust my butt… putting up with them crackers every day … cause I like you? You about the biggest fool I ever saw” (Wilson 38). Even though in this part it may seem that troy is being hard on his boy but only just to get his son to understand its just tough love.
Still troy
“it’s my job. It’s my responsibility! You understand that? A man got to take care of his family you live in my house ….. Sleep you behind on my bedclothes… fill you belly up with my food… cause you my son. You my flesh and blood not cause I like you! Cause it my duty to take care of you I owe a responsibility to you! Let’s get this straight right here… before it go along any further … I aint got to like you. Mr. Rand don’t give me my money come payday cause he likes me. He gives me cause he owe me. I done give you everything I had to give you. I gave you your life….”(Wilson 38)
 What troy was trying to  have Cory realize is that it I do love you son but I am not going to treat you will your mom does I am going to treat you like a man  and show you and tell you what a man does  you may not like it but you have to hear it.
 As the years go on troy and Cory  relationship kinds of shifts  in a way Cory finally a stands up to his dad  how his way is not the best way  but then he realize it’s for the best that he should leave
“Cory: come on put me out
(Cory swings at troy, who backs across the yard)
What’s the matter? You so bad… put me out” (Wilson 88)
The way troy shape and develop  his legacy that  he made something out of his son.
