Many Faced God Lyrics - Jay-z

[Intro: JAY-Z] 

Yeah 

Uh 

Taking the pain away 

Smoking the pain away 

Uh 

Drinking the pain away 

[Verse 1: JAY-Z] 

Look at all we been through since last August 

Skating through the rumors like, "Aw, shit!" 

Still came back, fucked up the red carpet 

Shows how big your heart is 

On the run, we took a hundred together 

More than the money was the fact that we done it together 

Uh, healing in real time 

Song Cry to Resentment, that was real crying 

Bonnie and Clyde things, we hold it down 

Had we surrendered then, that'd be the real crime 

Got through it, got blessed times two with them 

New Bel-Air estates with four pools in it 

I told my bro, "You gotta go home" over vino 

Goodfella, don't gamble with your life, this ain't Casino 

Cost him two mill plus the child support 

We'll get the money back, but not the child support 

It's getting too late, we can't afford mistakes 

Woulda broke me down had you got away 

Woulda broke me up had you took my child away 

I'm glad we found a way 

Sexin' the pain away 

Vacay the pain away 

Drinking the pain away 

Smoking the pain away 

Yeah 

[Verse 2: James Blake (JAY-Z)] 

Too perfect to wonder 

We created flame that would warm us 'til it's over 

We invented lovers from company for the sound 

I was many faces, at least I was willing to cave 

I was worried that the way I was would end me up alone (Shit feels so beautiful, don't you agree!) 

I was worried that the way I was would end me up alone

[Verse 3: JAY-Z] 

Yeah 

Uh 

Yeah 

Our external reality is an opportunity to heal our internal upset 

Let's build a cathedral these evils couldn't fuck with 

I wanna spend my Saturdays and my latter-days, eating sundaes and enjoying Mondays 

Not worrying about what none say 

Yoncé 

All on this mouth like liquor 

That my nigga, uh, that my nigga 

Over everything, each of our mood swings 

Whenever attitudes change, like a mood ring 

Ain't nothing like somebody that get ya 

Baby, I get ya 

Let's go through this thing, come out stronger, the golden journey 

Broken is better than new, that's kintsugi 

You're fine china 

I'm a bull and ball in a china shop 

I promise to repair with gold each bowl I drop 

Be grateful for whatever come 

Because each has been sent from a guy from beyond 

That's what Rumi say 

"Never go to bed mad," that's what my Umi say 

It always took her less to say more 

I always thought she was an angel, now I'm sure 

Sure 

Uh 

Yup
