Third Floor ep

by Shawn Xavien

/
1.
It’s been a long time Since I told you about that time When time stood still And then it crossed my mind That 9 stopped on a dime Toes planted on the line White lights Cameras Actions Cut scenes far behind Is it Forward thinking That I’m too forward thinking That we see eye to eye When the fog around is sinking That’s cold Not J Let’s play All our parts - It may seem Like I just missed it but really really I get it
2.
Where we wanna be Come to me Looking through a mirror Black summers The imagery Rise a bove the moon Watch the stars pretending for free Sail around the world to the end Is a wave to me That’s a wave to me Warming to the sound of your own To the 3rd degree Common sense made 1 Then none So it’s 1 of me Effort don’t come with a key Doors hinge on the cost of weak 7th heaven if it is what you seek A blind eye, and they still gonna peak Turn the same cheek Climb the same peak Claim the same freak Iron the same sheet Bars set the high for great you might meet A line where you find you standing on mink
3.
Is it real when you feel the moment creeping on your skin Turn around then around yet again Was it really nothing Or just a vision of the wind Blowing in the dark it depends On Your patience Pay it no attention But tension if you’re willing You’re forgiven That’s for certain Pain ain’t pleasure if it’s hurtin But them curtains blacking out Like one to many shots of the bourbon Playing chicken with cars Chasing scars for a healing Got them hands for a froggy type feeling But it don’t mean nothing Unless you really want something -And you can have it all / you can have it all

Prime 01:41
I decided to come up off my emotions and just get right to it Cuz you either living or you dying ain’t no halfway thru it See this house on a hill got an add on to it Like the ice in my glass you can see right through it Yes the pen still fluid It’s a blessing but I know they gonna still atchoo it It’s a curse if they only try to read into it Maybe chop and screw it It’s a game within a game so let’s play right through it It’s my tax intuit State the facts it’s truer 2nd act straight shooter Exit out my future Thats deep a cut So it just my suit cha Trial of the mind Til it’s mine and it’s old Nevermind all the time Buried deep in the soul We resign to the line Black and white when it’s told Gray the rhyme if you see it Holding tight to the fold

about

While taking the stairs one day from the 6th floor to the 3rd floor it just came to mind. A random thought of creativity. According to the urban dictionary, one is third floored when one hears exactly the wrong part of another’s conversation. So… in true Shawn Xavien fashion, I wrote an ep where I expect the listener to hear what they want to hear.
