Grammar:

• I'll take you to the candy shop

  ➔ Future Simple with 'will' ('I'll' is a contraction of 'I will')

  ➔ Expresses a promise or intention to take someone to the candy shop. "I'll take" indicates a future action.

• Go 'head girl, don't you stop

  ➔ Imperative sentences (positive and negative)

  ➔ "Go 'head" is a shortened, informal way of saying "Go ahead," which is a positive imperative. "Don't you stop" is a negative imperative. Both are used to give direct commands or instructions.

• You gon' back that thing up or should I push up on it

  ➔ Future with 'gon'na' (going to) and interrogative sentence with 'should'

  ➔ "You gon' back that thing up" uses 'gon'na', a colloquial form of 'going to', to express a future action. "Should I push up on it" is a question using 'should' to offer a suggestion or ask for an opinion.

• If you be a, I'll be a

  ➔ Conditional sentence (Type 1 - possible condition)

  ➔ This is a simplified conditional sentence expressing a possible condition and its likely result. "If you be a" sets the condition, and "I'll be a" indicates the result if that condition is met.

• Girl what we do, what we do, and where we do, and where we do, the things we do, things we do are just between me and you, oh yeah

  ➔ Relative clauses (implied) and prepositional phrases ('between me and you')

  ➔ The repeated "what we do," "where we do," and "things we do" phrases imply relative clauses like "the things that we do." "Between me and you" is a prepositional phrase indicating the scope of the shared secret.

• Soon as I come through the door, she get to pullin' on my zipper

  ➔ Temporal clause with 'as soon as' and present tense used for future time

  ➔ "As soon as I come through the door" is a temporal clause indicating when the next action will occur. The use of the present tense "come" to describe a future event is common after temporal conjunctions. "She get to pullin'" is a colloquial construction using "get to" to indicate a continuous action.

• Lights on or lights off, she like it

  ➔ Ellipsis (omission of words) and simple present tense

  ➔ The phrase "Lights on or lights off" omits the verb "are". "She like it" uses the simple present tense to express a general preference.
