I wrote this for my father after I caught him drinking when he swore to my mother he quit
A sound promise has been broken
but I vow I have not spoken
though it hurts to deceive her so
more than my pain
soon will show

Alcohol he drinks so quick
until his words start to slip
his eyes they glow with hate
he alone must deal his fate

Prayers and hope to fix his state
believing it is not to late
time to grow, be a man
realize that your selfish plan
is not helping it's just damned
