If this song is your example of "telling ponies what they want to hear", I think you need to give it another listen.

Twilight is wondering what her role as a princess will/should be. As fellow princesses, Celestia, Luna, and Cadance tell her they understand what she's going through and that "[her] time is coming soon" -- every pony can and will eventually find his or her own place in the world. These ARE words of wisdom.

The other princesses can't tell Twilight what her role will be, nor will any obscure and metaphoric babble help her find it. They're telling her, as much help and support they can provide, Twilight would ultimately have to figure it out on her own. Which she does.
