Now every time I look straight into my father's eyes,
I see how hurt and broken down he is from all the times.
He had to watch the son he raised follow in his steps
Ronnie's father more than likely tried to teach him the life lessons he learnt but Ronnie didn't listen and made those mistakes as well so his dad couldn't help him as Ronnie wouldn't listen to his advice so his dad just had to sit back and hope for the best.
