Sage advice.
If a song ever had sage advice in the lyrics, it’s “Keep 'Em on They Toes” by “Brent Cobb”.
I heard that track, really heard it, when I was out jogging and it struck me how true it rang.
If you ever grow up One thing you'll find Most people that you meet Just about out their mind
They try to tell you how to live They try to tell you how to die They tell you don't get too low, but don't get too high Best thing you can do is don't listen too close Walk on to your own beat Keep 'em on they toes
Truer words I’ve never heard spoken or sang.
This is very conclusive with what I’ve experienced and thought in my own head: feeling the tug of all people trying to influence every decision and thought up here in my brain. Big and small.
somewhere in there is my own voice, but can it be distinguished from all the other noice up there?
