Key Grammar Structures

If it wasn't for Google, man that bitch wouldn't know my nickname.
➔ Second conditional (unreal present)
➔ The structure "If + past simple, would + base verb" expresses a hypothetical situation in the present. The phrase "If it **wasn't** for Google" sets the unreal condition, and "wouldn't **know**" shows the imagined result.
-
I haven't even seen a brick.
➔ Present perfect negative for experience
➔ The present perfect "have/has + past participle" is used to talk about experiences up to now. "haven't **even seen**" shows that the speaker has not had that experience yet.
-
I could do that top shelf.
➔ Modal verb "could" for ability/possibility
➔ "could" is the past form of "can" but is also used to talk about a present or future ability or possibility. The phrase "could **do**" expresses that the speaker is capable of doing something.
-
I was rolling off the pills, I should've never fucked that bitch.
➔ Past continuous + modal perfect "should have" for regret
➔ "was rolling" is past continuous, showing an ongoing action in the past. "should've **never fucked**" is the modal perfect "should have" + past participle, used to express regret about a past action.
-
Stepped all in mud, this bitch can't wait to tie my shoelace.
➔ "can't wait to + verb" idiom expressing eagerness
➔ The idiom "can't wait to **tie**" means the speaker is very eager or impatient to perform the action "tie".
-
I gotta take this shit up with God 'cause I'm a god on our Earth.
➔ "gotta" = informal "have got to" (necessity) and contraction "'cause" for "because"
➔ The speaker uses the informal modal "gotta" to express obligation: "gotta **take**" = must take. "'cause" shortens "because" and introduces the reason.
-
I got killers, they gon' kill a nigga, then go and shoot up the hearse.
➔ "gon'" = informal contraction of "going to" (future intention)
➔ The speaker uses the colloquial "gon'" (short for "going to") to indicate a planned future action: "gon' **kill**" = will kill.
-
You think a nigga like me give a fuck about a nigga shooting up a church?
➔ Indirect question with present simple after "think"
➔ The speaker asks a rhetorical question: "You think **give** a fuck..." The verb "think" is followed by a clause in present simple ("give") to express the listener's belief.
