Key Grammar Structures

  • Let it burn Tobacco filling up my lungs yeah.

    ➔ Causative Verb "Let" + Present Participle

    "Let it burn" uses the causative verb "let" followed by the base form of the verb ("burn"). This structure means to allow or permit something to happen. "Filling up" is a present participle used to describe an ongoing action or state related to the subject.

  • I'm taking advantage, I'm dodging this Xanny, I double this sack with my friend.

    ➔ Present Continuous for Ongoing Actions & Idiomatic Expression

    "I'm taking" and "I'm dodging" use the present continuous tense (form: subject + "be" verb + -ing form of main verb) to describe actions happening at the moment of speaking or ongoing over a period. "Taking advantage" is a common idiom meaning to exploit a situation or opportunity.

  • With these girls I just wanna have fun.

    ➔ Informal Contraction "Wanna"

    "Wanna" is an informal contraction of "want to". It is extremely common in spoken English, song lyrics, and casual writing, but generally avoided in formal academic or professional contexts. It reflects a relaxed and natural speaking style.

  • I wonder what am I gonna do with my life.

    ➔ Direct Question Structure within an Embedded Clause (Colloquial)

    ➔ In standard English, after verbs like "wonder," "ask," or "know," an indirect question should follow (e.g., "I wonder what *I am* going to do"). The use of "what am I gonna do" retains the direct question word order, often used colloquially to express an internal monologue or rhetorical question to oneself, even when grammatically embedded. "Gonna" is an informal contraction of "going to."

  • She want get even, she feel like I tried.

    ➔ Omission of "To" in Infinitive Phrase (Informal)

    ➔ In standard English, the verb "want" is usually followed by "to" + infinitive (e.g., "She *wants to* get even"). The omission of "to" is a feature of highly informal or dialectal speech, often seen in song lyrics to mimic natural spoken rhythm. "Get even" is also an idiomatic phrase meaning to take revenge.

  • I was thinking, let they take up my time.

    ➔ Past Continuous + Non-Standard Pronoun Usage

    "I was thinking" uses the past continuous tense (was/were + -ing verb) to describe an ongoing thought or action in the past. The phrase "let they take up" is non-standard; in formal English, the object pronoun "them" should be used after "let" (i.e., "let *them* take up"). This non-standard usage highlights informal speech patterns or specific dialects.

  • All them guys gonna call.

    ➔ Informal Demonstrative "Them" + Informal Future "Gonna"

    "Them" is used here informally as a demonstrative adjective, replacing "those" (e.g., "All *those* guys"). "Gonna" is an informal contraction of "going to," commonly used to express future plans, intentions, or predictions. The combination emphasizes a very casual and conversational tone.

  • I was on fire and on fire, yeah.

    ➔ Idiomatic Expression "On Fire" in Past Tense

    ➔ The phrase "on fire" is an idiom meaning to be performing exceptionally well, to be highly energetic, or to be experiencing great success. Its use in the past tense ("was on fire") indicates a past state of peak performance or intensity. The repetition emphasizes the intensity.

  • I ain't had no problems, it's time to have fun.

    ➔ Double Negative with Informal Contraction "Ain't"

    "Ain't" is an informal contraction used for "am not," "is not," "are not," "has not," or "have not." The phrase "ain't had no problems" contains a double negative ("ain't" and "no"), which is non-standard in formal English but widely used in many informal dialects (e.g., African American Vernacular English) to intensify the negative meaning.
