[B] It was [D] 6.48,. I was walking home, stepped to the [Bm] gate, and I'm all alone. [E] I had chicken on the plate, but the food was cold. Then I covered up my face so that [D] no one knows. I didn't want trouble. I'm the boy in the [G] bubble. But then came trouble. [D] My mom walked into the living room. She said, Boy, you gotta tell [Bm] me what they did [E] to 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 freezing. [D] Put my hands up. Put my hands [F#] up. I told this kid I'm ready for a [Bm] fight. Punch my face. You were good. [Em] I like the pain. Every [D] time you curse my name. I know [F#] you want the satisfaction. It's not gonna happen. [Bm] 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 who's gonna suffer. [B] Suffer. [Bm] Well, I squared him up. Left my [C#m] chest 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. I [D] said, I didn't want trouble. [A] I'm the boy [D] in the bubble. But then came trouble. And [Bm] 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 [Bm] a fight. Punch my face. You were good. [Em] I like the pain. Every [D] time you curse my name. I know [F#] you want the satisfaction. It's not gonna happen. [Bm] 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 who's gonna suffer. [Bm] It was 648. He was walking home. With the blood on his hands from my broken nose. [Em] But like every other day, he was scared to go. Back to his house. Cause his pops was home. [D] Drowning his troubles. In whiskey [F#] bubbles. Just looking for trouble. [Bm] Well, 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 him. [D] Put down those bubbles. And that belt [F#] buckle. And this broken bubble. [Bm] Curse my face. Do it cause [Em] I like the pain. Every time [D] you curse my name. I know [F#] you want the satisfaction. It's not gonna happen. [Bm] Knock me out. Kick me when [Em] 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 who'll suffer. Suffer.
