"Good Advice #14" is a song written by Jason Cropper.

Overview

On May 21, 2020, Cropper performed the song in full during a "Golden Hour" stream for his Facebook and Instagram followers, saying it was about "a man from Tibet" who has "had an amazing life". The "Tenzin" referred to in the song is likely Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama.

Lyrics

Well, Jeremiah chose to wander through the wilderness
He left the cities to fall wherever they may
He's probably out there right now, praying this very moment
For the salvation of the entire human race

And he says "I'm just choosing to be optimistic
Because it always feels a little better this way
One small positive thought every morning
Will have a beautiful effect your entire day"

Sacha found a child abandoned in her heart became a healer
Now she rescues children from the shadows; must be her DNA
Every single breath she takes is a prayer
She blesses everything and everyone every single day

She says "I'm just choosing to be optimistic
Because it always feels a little better this way
One small positive thought every morning
Will have a beautiful effect your entire day"

And all the children play, can't you hear them sing?
Na na na na

Tenzin woke up one day to find his people had chosen him
Seems he'd come this way before and the wise folk felt it was destiny
Motivated by pure love makes him totally fearless
And the fearlessness is gonna set all of us free

And he says "I'm just choosing to be optimistic
Because it always feels a little better this way
One small positive thought every morning
Will have a beautiful effect your entire day"
