[English]

Ayy, this shit like videos, you hear me?

Everything I say in this motherfucker all props (this shit is not real)

Just in case the police listening, you know? (Haha)

Smurk, slide, slide, slide (man, what?)

Don't respond to shit with Von (yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'm like, "Fuck it, you tripping, go get your gun" (let's get it, yeah)

They dropping locations, I'm getting it done (woo, woo, woo, gang)

Fuck tweeting, we sliding, the feds will come (yeah, yeah, yeah, man, what?)

He fucking his bitches, them niggas his sons (bitches, them niggas, let's get it)

I'm hanging with killers, we breaking a bond (yeah, yeah, yeah)

They really don't mean it, he say it in songs (yeah, mean it, say it in songs)

I don't claim niggas who be with opps, I try to wheel 'em in (grrah)

The trenches like a sport, you grab the ball and turn a killer, man (bitch)

Switches on me, all face shots, we changing dental plans (brrah)

Key Grammar Structures

• Just in case the police listening, you know?

  ➔ Conditional Phrase: "Just in case"

  ➔ "Just in case" is used to introduce a precaution or a possibility. It means 'because it is possible that something will happen' or 'to be prepared for a possible future situation'. In this line, the speaker is taking a precaution against the police actively "listening" to his words.

• They dropping locations, I'm getting it done

  ➔ Causative Verb: "get something done"

  ➔ The causative structure "get something done" means to arrange for someone else to do something for you. Here, "I'm getting it done" implies that the speaker is arranging for the task (presumably related to the 'locations') to be completed by others, rather than doing it himself.

• I told Von to leave that bitch alone, she post on OnlyFans

  ➔ Reported Speech: Verb + Object + Infinitive

  ➔ This structure is used to report a command, request, or advice given to someone. "I told Von to leave..." means the speaker advised or instructed Von to perform the action of 'leaving that bitch alone'.

• My brother D-Thang just got killed and I been slow since

  ➔ Informal Passive Voice ("get killed") + AAVE Present Perfect ("I been slow since")

  ➔ "Got killed" is an informal way to form the passive voice, emphasizing the action or event rather than the agent. "I been slow since" is a common usage in African American Vernacular English (AAVE) for "I have been slow since," indicating a state that began in the past and continues up to the present.

• If you feel some type of way, you better slide and get revenge

  ➔ Conditional Clause + Modal Verb Phrase: "had better"

  ➔ The "If..." clause sets a condition. "You better" is a contracted, informal form of "you had better," which is used to give strong advice or a warning, implying that there will be negative consequences if the advice is not followed. It's stronger than 'should'.

• I just made her suck my dick and I just nutted on her chin

  ➔ Causative Verb: "make someone do something"

  ➔ The causative structure "make someone do something" means to force or cause someone to perform an action. The subject of "make" is the instigator, and the following verb is in its base form (without 'to'). Here, the speaker caused 'her' to perform the action.

• You doing that, you might as well go to court and say you killed the man

  ➔ Modal Expression: "might as well"

  ➔ "Might as well" is used to suggest doing something because there is no better alternative, or because the situation makes it seem logical or inevitable, even if it's not ideal. Here, it implies that since the person is already acting in a way that suggests guilt, they might as well fully confess.

• I can have your homie set you up, his ass a middle man

  ➔ Causative Verb: "have someone do something"

  ➔ The causative structure "have someone do something" means to arrange for someone else to do something, often by giving them an instruction or allowing them to do it. It implies control or influence over the person. Here, the speaker asserts the ability to orchestrate a 'set up' using the 'homie'.
