Grammar:

• Hot like a bullet, flying too fast I couldn't catch it.

  ➔ Participle Clause (Present Participle) & "Too + Adjective/Adverb"

  ➔ The phrase "flying too fast" is a present participle clause modifying the subject, describing how the bullet is moving. "Too fast" indicates an excessive degree of speed, making it impossible to catch.

• You got everybody's eyes undressing you.

  ➔ Causative Verb ("Get/Have someone/something Doing Something")

  ➔ The structure "got ... undressing" is a causative construction meaning "caused or allowed for someone/something to be doing something." Here, it implies that the subject's presence caused people's eyes to metaphorically "undress" them.

• You can have anyone else you wanted to,

  ➔ Modal Verb "Can" for Possibility & Reduced Relative Clause

  ➔ "Can have" expresses capability or possibility. "You wanted to" is a reduced relative clause (originally "whom you wanted to have") modifying "anyone else," indicating that Gabriela has many options for partners.

• I'm begging you.

  ➔ Present Continuous for Emphasis / Strong Emotion

  ➔ The use of the present continuous "I'm begging" instead of a simple present ("I beg") conveys a sense of urgency, ongoing action, or strong emotional appeal from the speaker.

• If you made all of these fantasies come true, What would you do?

  ➔ Second Conditional

  ➔ This sentence uses the second conditional structure ("If + past simple, would + base verb") to talk about a hypothetical or unlikely situation in the present or future, and its probable result.

• I bet you taste just like the summer.

  ➔ Sensory Verb ("Taste") + Simile ("Just like") & Informal Expression ("I bet")

  ➔ "Taste" is a sensory verb followed by a comparison using "just like the summer" (a simile), implying a pleasant, warm, or refreshing quality. "I bet" is an informal way to say "I'm sure" or "I believe."

• Overprotective of my lover.

  ➔ Adjective with "Over-" Prefix & Prepositional Phrase

  ➔ The adjective "Overprotective" uses the prefix "over-" to indicate an excessive degree of protection. It is followed by the preposition "of" to specify what or whom the protection is directed towards.

• Él llegó conmigo y conmigo se va.

  ➔ Spanish Pronominal Verb "Irse" & Preposition + Emphatic Pronoun ("Conmigo")

  ➔ "Se va" is the pronominal verb "irse" (to leave/go away), not just "ir" (to go), implying leaving with someone or from a place. "Conmigo" is a special form of "con" (with) + "mí" (me), meaning "with me."

• Sus ojos son míos, eso no va a cambiar.

  ➔ Spanish Possessive Pronoun ("Míos") & "Ir a + Infinitive" Future Tense

  ➔ "Míos" is a possessive pronoun that agrees in gender and number with the noun it refers to ("ojos"). "Va a cambiar" uses the common "ir a + infinitive" construction for expressing future actions or intentions in Spanish.

• Me quiere a mí, no importan las demás.

  ➔ Spanish Emphatic Personal Pronoun ("A mí") & Impersonal Verb ("Importar")

  ➔ "Me quiere a mí" uses the redundant "a mí" for emphasis, stressing "me" as the object of affection. "No importan las demás" uses the verb "importar" (to matter/be important) impersonally, where the actual subject ("las demás" - the others) follows the verb.
