Like father like son

My father taught me a few valuable things
Like how to drink and not get caught
Or how to lose your family and friends
Addiction's a horrible rot

Now he's been dead and gone since I was 8
And I've been wondering ever since
If I would become like the man that he was
It appears I am and I'm not

Like the father, like the son
Like the father, like the son
Like the father, like the son
