Song: Bad Advice
Part of the song: whole song
[Intro]
[Verse]
A pastor told me âSon...a man lives with what heâs done,
But nothingâs ever quite as bad as it feels.
If youâre gonna wait until your pockets start to spill
Better go out there and learn to seal the deal
I think Whitman said it right, you only live until you die
So donât make the worst of everything you see
âCause vaults always open. Dirt is gone with soap and
Streets were only paved to skin your knees.â
[Chorus]
He said âDonât spend wooden nickels shut the tap if it trickles
You gotta lose before you win, Forgiveness needs a sin
The devil takes your soul, but turns your doubt into gold dust
You are the only man youâll ever be
[Bridge]
[Verse]
Promises will lie, but tears will always dry
Your gut s the only truth youâll ever need
Youâll sound so damn smart, when you listen to your heart
The answers pump around until you bleedâ
[Chorus]
He said âDonât spend wooden nickels shut the tap if it trickles
You gotta lose before you win, Forgiveness needs a sin
The devil takes your soul, but turns your doubt into gold dust
You are the only man youâll ever be
