Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have a 7 year old whose father hasn't been involved in his life and I also have a 5 year old with somebody else whose been helping me raise the oldest for the past 6 years . We're not married yet but we're planning on it . I was wondering how do I go about terminating the biological fathers rights , because the guy I've been with does want to adopt the oldest one but we're not married yet .if I can prove that he's a drunk and is on drugs and doesn't respect authority what's the next step I can take to terminate his rights
