Genetic Predisposition
Lazy man, with a higher inclination
Possession of intelligence yet the alcohol seems more relevant
Playing the victim yet he is only victim of self-pity
Un-evil benevolent self-being yet a product of self-loathing
Self-provoking, lacking self-control
Behold
Product of his father, creator of his son
One among many, he is not the only one
One last drink, one last chance
Promises are broken
Advisors are plenty but let me offer one last token
Changes come with effort and effort comes with will
The will to change is attitude
An attitude to kill
The person from the past, create a new in the future
Son of man, predisposed to his condition
The will to change in both of us, for the sake our ambition.
