Key Grammar Structures

• I think your girl want me

  ➔ Subject‑verb agreement with a third‑person singular noun

  ➔ The verb should be **wants** because the subject "your girl" is third‑person singular.

• She keeps them heels on high

  ➔ Present simple for habitual actions

  ➔ "keeps" is the third‑person singular form of **keep** used for a repeated or regular action.

• I'm sorry I got in for your girlfriend

  ➔ Past simple in a reported apology clause

  ➔ "got" is the past simple of **get** indicating a completed action in the past.

• Call it envy, I want her on me

  ➔ Imperative sentence + infinitive of purpose

  ➔ "Call" is an imperative verb telling the listener to name something; "to" is omitted before the infinitive "want".

• All up in my head, and now she in my bed

  ➔ Ellipsis (omission of verb "is")

  ➔ The verb "is" after "she" is omitted, a common informal style: "she **is** in my bed" → "she in my bed".

• I would be too

  ➔ Modal verb "would" expressing conditional or hypothetical stance

  ➔ "would" is used here to show that the speaker is imagining a possible reaction: "I **would be** too (if I were in that situation)."

• We walkin' out the club, shawty what's up

  ➔ Present participle used as a colloquial present progressive without auxiliary "are"

  ➔ "walkin'" is the contracted form of "walking" used in place of "we are walking"; the auxiliary "are" is omitted for stylistic effect.

• She drop it down to the floor

  ➔ Zero conditional (simple present + simple present) expressing a general truth

  ➔ "She drop" should be "She **drops**"; the sentence follows the pattern "If X, Y" (omitted) where both verbs are in the simple present.

• Damn she bad, bad, bad, bad

  ➔ Adjective used as a predicative complement without a linking verb (zero copula)

  ➔ The adjective "bad" functions as a predicate directly after the subject "she"; the linking verb "is" is omitted, a common feature in slang.
