Cuzzo ten, bustin' stains, swappin' stereos

Bumpin' Mary

Merry Christmas 'round this bitch, wasn't really merry

Shit was scary

Halloween like every day, more ordinary, okay

Platinum slugs and princess cuts for the tooth fairy, okay

Only time we seen results was watchin' Jerry

Jerry, Jerry

Only time I seen a lake was watchin’ Ricki

On God

Brr, brr, it get sticky

We brought magic to the stu’ 'cause it get tricky

I get tricky

Had to violate the strip, yeah, come and get me

It's litty

They done ran out of George, we throwin' Benjis

Throwin’ hunchos, it's lit

All this sauce, I'm makin' cheese like Jon and Vinny's

21, cousin Vinny

All these gold flakes on my couch, I think I'm Lenny

The Roc

Now we bus 'em to the lake, I think I'm Jenny

Down the block

Seen the wrist, turned to results from pushin' pennies

That's on Jacques

Only book that's in my crib is the Guinness

Straight up, straight up, not a lie

How long can these records spin? 'Til infinity

Err-ah, on God

Woo, woo, woo, woo

If this shit get complicated, you get kicked out

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah

Key Grammar Structures

• If this shit get complicated, you get kicked out

  ➔ Conditional Clause & 'Get' Passive Voice

  ➔ This sentence uses a first conditional structure to describe a likely situation and its consequence. The phrase "get kicked out" is an informal way to form the passive voice, emphasizing the process or action happening to the subject, often implying a less formal or more dynamic event than 'be kicked out'.

• who you kiddin'

  ➔ Omission of Auxiliary Verb

  ➔ In informal speech, particularly in rapid conversation or song lyrics, the auxiliary verb "are" is often omitted from 'Wh-' questions in the present continuous tense. The full sentence would be "Who "are" you kidding?".

• Like I ain't got no place to stay, yeah, I circ' out

  ➔ Double Negative / Non-Standard 'Ain't'

  ➔ "ain't got no" is an example of a double negative, common in informal and non-standard English dialects. In standard English, it would mean "don't have any" or "haven't got any". "Ain't" serves as a non-standard contraction for 'am not', 'is not', 'are not', 'has not', or 'have not'.

• That red Malibu, Roberta packed it like a Shelby

  ➔ Simile using 'Like'

  ➔ "like a Shelby" is a simile, a figure of speech that directly compares two different things using "like" or "as" to create a vivid image. Here, the way the Malibu was "packed" (loaded/filled) is compared to how a powerful car like a Shelby might be handled.

• Cuzzo ten, bustin' stains, swappin' stereos

  ➔ Informal Use of Present Participles

  ➔ "bustin' stains" and "swappin' stereos" are present participles (-ing forms) used to describe ongoing or habitual actions. The auxiliary verb (e.g., 'is' or 'was') is often omitted for brevity and informality, common in rap lyrics and casual speech.

• Only time we seen results was watchin' Jerry

  ➔ Non-Standard Past Tense 'Seen'

  ➔ In standard English, the simple past tense of "see" is "saw," and "seen" is the past participle (used with auxiliary verbs like 'have' or 'had'). However, in many informal and regional dialects, "seen" is used as the simple past tense, as in "we "seen" results" (standard: 'we saw results').

• Bronem sleepin’ with them sticks 'cause it get sticky

  ➔ Non-Standard Third-Person Singular Verb Agreement

  ➔ In standard English, for a third-person singular subject ('it', 'he', 'she'), the verb in the simple present tense adds an '-s' (e.g., "it "gets" sticky"). The omission of the '-s' is characteristic of some informal dialects, including AAVE (African American Vernacular English).

• They done ran out of George, we throwin' Benjis

  ➔ Non-Standard Auxiliary 'Done'

  ➔ The auxiliary "done" followed by a past participle ("done "ran" out") is a feature of some non-standard dialects (like AAVE), emphasizing the completion or intensity of an action. In standard English, this would be expressed as "They "have" run out" or "They "had" run out."

• Had to violate the strip, yeah, come and get me

  ➔ Modal Verb 'Had to'

  ➔ "Had to" is the past tense form of "have to," and it expresses a past obligation, necessity, or something that was required to be done. It implies a strong compulsion or external requirement.

• Only book that's in my crib is the Guinness

  ➔ Defining Relative Clause with 'That'

  ➔ The phrase "that's in my crib" is a defining relative clause. It provides essential information about the noun "book," specifying which book is being referred to. The relative pronoun "that" refers to "book" and acts as the subject of the clause.
