Good Advice
Peach Tree Rascals Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I take my own advice
I know I'll be okay on my own side
Me I won't fade away
Go ahead and pick yourself up
Don't need no one else
Take my advice
I know you'll be okay, be okay

If I wake up with no patience, yeah, yeah
Gon' hit my plug for my vacation, yeah, yeah
Gon' lift me up 'cause I been dazing
I'll figure it out, I know, figure it out

'Cause I been up, falling face down
Mindless thoughts in a race now
I don't wanna go way down
Figure it out on my own
Ain't nobody gon' wait up
Ain't nobody gon' wait up
Ain't nobody gon' wait up
Ain't nobody gon', ain't nobody gon'

If I take my own advice
I know I'll be okay on my own side
Me I won't fade away
Go ahead and pick yourself up
Don't need no one else
Take my advice
I know you'll be okay, be okay

Bitch shut up, I can't talk
Why these hoes in my phone?
I'm anxious, it ain't my fault, yeah
She got time for no scrubs
Tell her that I been trying, I feel like I'm gliding
When I'm too high and stuck in my loop
I just been hiding, I feel like I'm flying
I'll be a pilot if it's for you

Tell 'em I decided, even if I get invited
I ain't showing up unless I got my baby there
Listening to guidance, I ain't buying no designer
Baby, I can turn a hundred to a million (If I take my own advice)

I know I'll be okay on my own side
Me I won't fade away
Go ahead and pick yourself up
Don't need no one else
Take my advice
I know you'll be okay, be okay

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

Go ahead and pick yourself up
Don't need no one else

Take my advice
I know you'll be okay, be okay
