Grammar:

• I KNOW YOU WANNA LOVE

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood (Implied)

  ➔ While not explicitly using 'were' or 'if', 'wanna' (want to) implies a desire or hypothetical situation. A more grammatically formal version would be 'I know you want to love', but the relaxed form is common in informal speech and song lyrics.

• I GOTTA KEEP IT REAL

  ➔ Contraction and Idiomatic Expression

  ➔ 'Gotta' is a contraction of 'got to' (meaning 'have to'). 'Keep it real' is an idiomatic expression meaning to be genuine and honest.

• IN MY B.E.D, GRINDING SLOW

  ➔ Adverb vs. Adjective (Slang Usage)

  ➔ Technically, 'slowly' is the correct adverb to modify 'grinding'. However, 'slow' is often used informally as an adverb in some dialects and slang.

• I DONE RIPPED ABOUT A HUNDRED SHOWS

  ➔ Non-standard Past Participle / Past Tense

  ➔ 'Done ripped' uses 'done' as an auxiliary verb to emphasize completion in a non-standard dialect. Standard English would use the simple past 'ripped' or present perfect 'have ripped'.

• BITCH BAD, NO KANYE

  ➔ Ellipsis and Comparative Omission

  ➔ There is an implied comparison here. It means something along the lines of "(The) bitch (is) bad, (she is) not (like) Kanye". The verbs and prepositions are omitted for brevity and stylistic effect.

• WHEN WE DO IT, DO IT OUR WAY

  ➔ Emphasis through Repetition

  ➔ Repeating "do it" emphasizes the act and reinforces the ownership of the action.

• BITCH, THIS AIN'T YA MONEY

  ➔ Non-standard Verb Conjugation and Possessive Pronoun

  ➔ "Ain't" is a non-standard contraction used in place of "isn't" or "aren't". "Ya" is a colloquial shortening of "your."

• EX HOES, YEAH, THEY SICK

  ➔ Subject-Complement Link and Ellipsis (Slang usage)

  ➔ It means something along the lines of "Ex hoes, yeah, they are sick (jealous)". The verb "are" are omitted for brevity and stylistic effect.
