I ain’t had love in a minute
➔ Present Perfect Negative (Colloquial) + Idiomatic Time Expression
➔ The phrase "ain't had" is a colloquial negative form of "haven't had," indicating an action that started in the past and continues to the present. "in a minute" is an idiom meaning "for a long time" or "in a very long time."
-
Lately I been drowning in my feelings
➔ Present Perfect Continuous (Colloquial)

-
When I’m in my feelings, I pour me some ******* just so I can feel it
➔ Conditional Clause (Type 0) + Purpose Clause
➔ "When I’m in my feelings" is a Type 0 Conditional clause, expressing a general truth or habitual action. The result, "I pour me some *******," always happens under this condition. "just so I can feel it" is a purpose clause, explaining why the action is performed.
-
No doctor, nurse, or pharmacy needed, the way I prescript it
➔ Ellipsis / Reduced Relative Clause (Implied Passive)
➔ The word "needed" is a past participle acting as an adjective, implying "is needed" or "are needed." This is an example of ellipsis, where words like "is" or "are" from a passive structure are omitted for conciseness, common in informal language and headlines.
-
If I ain’t the greatest, then who is you kidding?
➔ Conditional Clause (Type 1) + Rhetorical Question + Colloquial Subject-Verb Agreement
➔ "If I ain’t the greatest" is a Type 1 Conditional, expressing a real or possible condition. "ain't" is a colloquial substitute for "am not." "who is you kidding?" is a rhetorical question, not expecting an answer, and uses colloquial "is you" instead of standard "are you."
-
They want us to stop taking drugs, but ain’t nobody stopping the killing
➔ Verb + Object + Infinitive + Colloquial Negative

-

➔ Modal Verb 'could' (Past Ability/Possibility)

-
wish I could put him under my wing
➔ Wish Clause (Past Unreal Conditional)
➔ The structure "wish I could" expresses a desire for something that is impossible or unlikely to happen in the present or future. It uses the past tense modal verb "could" to indicate this unreality, similar to a past unreal conditional.
-
Just look at what this world done came to
➔ Noun Clause + Colloquial 'done' (as auxiliary) + Phrasal Verb
➔ "what this world done came to" is a noun clause acting as the object of the preposition "at." "done came to" is a colloquial substitute for "has come to" (Present Perfect tense), indicating a state or result reached. "come to" is a phrasal verb meaning to reach a certain state or condition.
-
Cause breaking the code like breaking the law
➔ Gerund as Subject + Simile

-

➔ Present Continuous (Colloquial) + Imperative
