[B] It was [D] 648 I was walking home, stepped to the [Bm] gate and I'm all [E] alone
I had chicken on the plate but the food was cold
Then I covered up my face so that no one [D] knows
I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble
[G] But then came trouble
[D] When my mom walked into the living room she said,
Boy you gotta tell me what they did to [E] you
I said, you don't wanna know the things I had to do
She said, son you gotta tell me why you're [D] black and blue
I said, I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the [G] bubble
But then came trouble
[G#] And [Bm] my heart was pumping, chest was screaming
[Em] Mind was running, air was [D] freezing
Put my hands up, put my hands up
I [F#] told this kid I'm ready for a fight
[Bm] Crush my face, do it [Em] cause I like the pain
Every [D] time you curse my name
I [F#] know you want the satisfaction
It's not gonna [Bm] happen, knock me out
Kick me [Em] when I'm on the ground
It's only [D] gonna let you down
I'm [F#] the lightning and the thunder
You're the one that's gonna suffer
[N] Well [B] I squared him [C#] up, left my thirst exposed
He threw a [Bm] quick left hook and it broke my nose
[E] I had thick red blood running down my clothes
And a sick, sick look cause I liked it [D] though
I said, I didn't want [A] trouble, I'm the boy in the [G] bubble
But then came trouble
[Bm] And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming
[Em] Mind was running, nose was bleeding
[D] Put my hands up, put my hands [F#] up
I told this kid I'm ready for a [Bm] fight
Crush my face, do it [Em] cause I like the pain
Every [D] time you curse my name
I [F#] know you want the satisfaction
It's not gonna [Bm] happen, knock me out
Kick me [Em] when I'm on the ground
It's only [D] gonna let you down
[F#] I'm the lightning and the thunder
You're the one that's gonna [Bm] suffer
At 6.48. he was walking home With the blood on his hands from a broken nose [Em] But like every other day he was scared to go Back to his house cause his pops was [D] home Drowning his troubles in whiskey [F#] bubbles Just looking for trouble Well [Bm] there's no excuse for the things he did But there's a lot at home that he's dealing with [Em] Cause his dad's been drunk since he was a kid And I hope one day that I'll say to [D] him Put down those bubbles and that belt [F#] buckle And this broken bubble [Bm] Crush my face, do it [Em] cause I like the pain Every [D] time you curse my name I know [F#] you want the satisfaction It's not gonna [Bm] happen, knock me out Kick me [Em] when I'm on the ground It's only [D] gonna let you down I'm [F#] the lightning and the thunder You're the one that's gonna suffer
