| No one ever believed in me
|
| I didn’t believe in myself
|
| Not a word of praise ever came my way
|
| Nothing but shaking heads and doubt
|
| I started taking the low road
|
| Started living just for the end
|
| I didn’t find God or Jesus
|
| And the devil was my only friend
|
| The tree was felled and falling
|
| Walls caving in all around
|
| Now I’m turning over a new leaf
|
| Gonna take it to a higher ground
|
| I had a wreckless disposition
|
| So I blacked out all the sun
|
| There was something that had control of me
|
| I was a loaded and a smoking gun
|
| I came in through the back door
|
| I was biting all the helping hands
|
| I was angry loud and oh so proud
|
| But now I’m ready to make a stand
|
| The tree was felled and falling
|
| Walls caving in all around
|
| Now I’m turning over a new leaf
|
| Gonna take it to a higher ground
|
| A bad seed I was planted
|
| But I forgot to grow
|
| I was burnin' it down to the ground I was sinking
|
| Surely you must know
|
| No one ever believed in me
|
| I didn’t believe in myself
|
| Not a word of praise ever came my way
|
| Nothing but shaking heads and doubt
|
| I started taking the low road

| Started living just for the end
|
| I didn’t find God or Jesus
|
| And the devil was my only friend
|
| The tree was felled and falling
|
| Walls caving in all around
|
| Now I’m turning over a new leaf
|
| Gonna take it to a higher ground
