How to move a metabox above the main content?

[studionoobly]

On a template page I have a metabox that I can get to show up below the main content of the page but now I would like to move the metabox to display just after the "content-sidebar-wrap"?

<?php
  /*
  Template Name: Custom Page Template
  */
  /*
  This is the Custom page template
  */
  // force page layout to be content then sidebar
  add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_content_sidebar' );
  // remove comments
  remove_action( 'genesis_comments', 'genesis_do_comments' );
  // adding a custom sidebar for this page
  remove_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'genesis_do_sidebar' );
  add_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'nb_do_sidebar' );
  // inserting custom page content into genesis template
  add_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'nb_custom_page' );
  // creating custom page content
  function nb_custom_page() { ?>

      <?php
        $textarea = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_cmb_c_textarea', true );
      ?>

      <p><?php echo esc_html( $textarea ); ?></p>

<?php
}
// do genesis
genesis();
?>

I have tried adding the following but the metabox disappears on the front end with no error message?

<?php
        $textarea = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_cmb_c_textarea', true );
      ?>

      <?php 
        add_action( 'genesis_before_content', 'nb_do_metabox' );
        function nb_do_metabox() {
          echo esc_html( $textarea ); 
        }
      ?>

Thanks.

After much banging of head against desk, I found this solution worked for me, I'm not sure if it's the best way of doing it, if anyone has a better idea I'm all ears.

<?php
  /*
  Template Name: Custom Page Template
  */
  /*
  This is the Custom page template
  */
  // force page layout to be content then sidebar
  add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_content_sidebar' );
  // remove comments
  remove_action( 'genesis_comments', 'genesis_do_comments' );
  // adding a custom sidebar for this page
  remove_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'genesis_do_sidebar' );
  add_action( 'genesis_sidebar', 'nb_do_sidebar' );

  // adding two custom fields before the page content
  add_action( 'genesis_before_content_sidebar_wrap', 'nb_meta_box_callback' );
  if (!function_exists('nb_meta_box_callback')) {
    function nb_meta_box_callback() {
  // Grab the metadata from the database
      $text = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_cmb_text', true );
      $textarea = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_cmb_textarea', true );
  // spit out the metadata in two custom fields
      echo '<h1 class="entry-title">' . esc_html( $text ) . '</h1>';
      echo '<div class="entry-intro">' . esc_html( $textarea ) . '</div>';
    }
  }

  // inserting custom page content into genesis template
  add_action( 'genesis_after_entry', 'nb_custom_page' );
  // creating custom page content
  function nb_custom_page() { ?>

<!-- you can place aditional page content here -->

<?php
}
// do genesis
genesis();
?>
