? What do you think ?
I was born evil 
It's obvious 
Yeah
But I learnt how to be good
Did it work?
Well. Sometimes I am good
Other times I don't want to be
So once evil is always evil?
A few people change
Evil is both relative, objective, subjective etc
So we all consider different things as evil sometimes
I see, you're changing too
It's a good thing
Change can be good or bad 
It's in between
Yeah,it all depends on who I'm engaging with 
No one is born good or bad, they may be shaped to become a certain way tho as they grow up and cos of their social environment
evil/bad is a man made term and is subjective and i believe that people turn that way throughout their lifetime instead of being born that way
Some are born in more pfimitive cultures where the concept of good/evil is almost absent due to the lack of advancement of said culture. Aside from that, everyone is born "good", but simply moves away from that once they see that it only damages them thanks to others human being.
I think nature vs nurture dynamic comes into play. I think some people are born with a greater capacity for evil but the environment is what ultimately brings it out
Humans are naturally born without true empathy, but we learn it in our childhood, it naturally develops by being raised and seeing the actions of the parents and people around us.
No one is born evil
The correct answer would be
They are not born evil
They choose to be evil
