Genesis.

if we're on the same pagewhy is that one of us impersonating a cageif you're setor at least have an ideait's the melody in my mindkept some of them singing for years about itstill you weren't too easy to play withif it were a game of two

an unexpected opponent was Ione you'd never knewyet with relentless cards unspokenlook forward I can onlyto a potential we yet not knew how-to

a pattern you werean old school rhythm I heard but never listeneda song I danced but never stopped to seenow I seenow I hearnow I feelit's been simply intensesubconscious harmonizeharmonize to the unspoken rhythm speaking the language of the worldif you're the one reading my linesyou know what my referral is abouttold you it'd help you with the journey you're about to take off toit did, you will continuewhen the time tower turns in the righteous way

I let goI let go because that was what I had toif you're the one reading these linesyou'll understand whymaybe not todaynot tomorrownot in a month but with practice in your pacepleaseplease don't raceyou're everything you needeverything you wish to haveyou got itif only you'd realizethe undiscovered onediscover yourselfshallow seas won't afford your depthyour ocean-wide eyes will one daySee better

some of the things I never told youthey're inscribed in betweenlook closersee the seeds I've left for you to growwater them every daywill I will play around here just know that players were rightthe game had to be written from the start

When you are readyNot in wish of what you already areBrave enough to look at the mirror of truthProceed to the starting point & roll the diceLet the mice playReality is what you make itMake it what you need it to be

the control is within your entityyours & yours only

I'm still hereBut I did turn a pageMaybe a whole chapterBecause you have to turn the tables on your ownI'm waitingIn that other chapterBecause this is the one I can't read without youI'm keeping my own oathWhatever it takes, I saidI acted out as my role neededCut, the director saidThis scene needs a whole new direction A new angle or twoClose-in to what mattersAnd medium to what's anew

This one Not every producer can playIt takes a few thingsOnly you & I know how to sayLet's start from that sceneNo beatsNo empty spaces in between the action linesAnd that lineYou wouldn't use that to alignMy glares would have been differentIf only you knewYou read the whole sceneNot including just your partsThe right scene takes many triesRight placeRight time & Right SpaceIf you're the one reading the linesSomething had to fade awayOnly so you can learn how to sway

Until you doPromiseI won't read another word And instead will stay in that chapterThis one's a genesisA multiplayer poker-faceAnd I stillStill want to

Play.
