Ça c’est Vegedream de Gagnoa

This is Vegedream from Gagnoa -

El Fifty Cent Europeo negro,

The European Fifty Cent, bro, -

Si no lo veo no lo creo negro

If I don't see it, I don't believe it, bro -

Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

She makes my mind freeze

Yo se que me quiere pero no dice

I know she loves me but she doesn't say it

Casi terminamo’ pero no quise

We almost broke up but I didn't want to

Porque pienso en los momento que son felice’

Because I think about the happy moments

Et quand elle ouvre la bouche, je suis paralysé

Key Grammar Structures

• Ella hace que mi mente se paralice

  ➔ Subjunctive Mood after 'hacer que'

  ➔ The phrase "hace que" (makes that) requires the subjunctive mood in the following clause because it expresses a command, desire, or influence on an action. Here, "se paralice" is the subjunctive form of "paralizarse."

• Je tiens plus debout comme si j'étais alcoolisé

  ➔ 'Comme si' + Imperfect Tense

  ➔ "Comme si" (as if) is followed by the imperfect tense ("j'étais") to express a hypothetical situation or a comparison that is contrary to fact or highly improbable in the present.

• Que por ti yo correria Como un galgo

  ➔ Conditional Tense (Hypothetical Action)

  ➔ The conditional tense "correria" (I would run) is used here to express a hypothetical action that would occur under a certain condition (for you). It implies willingness or a potential future action dependent on a premise.

• J'ai du mal à comprendre à tout réaliser

  ➔ 'Avoir du mal à' + Infinitive

  ➔ The idiom "avoir du mal à" means "to have difficulty doing something." It is always followed by the preposition "à" and then an infinitive verb ("comprendre", "réaliser").

• Si me voy estoy huyendo

  ➔ 'Si' Clause Type 1 (Real Condition)

  ➔ This is a Type 1 conditional sentence, indicating a real or very probable condition and its consequence. The "si" clause ("Si me voy") uses the present indicative, and the main clause ("estoy huyendo") uses the present progressive to show an action happening as a result.

• Faut que je la contrôle comme un inspecteur

  ➔ 'Il faut que' + Subjunctive Mood

  ➔ The impersonal expression "il faut que" (it is necessary that) requires the subjunctive mood in the following clause ("je la contrôle") when referring to a specific subject, to express an obligation or necessity. "Faut" is a common informal contraction of "il faut".

• Ce que je ressens c'est de la folie

  ➔ Compound Relative Pronoun 'Ce que'

  ➔ "Ce que" functions as a compound relative pronoun, meaning "what" or "that which." It refers to an unspecified thing and acts as the direct object of the verb in the relative clause ("je ressens").

• je suis paralysé

  ➔ Passive Voice

  ➔ The passive voice is formed with the auxiliary verb "être" ("suis") and the past participle ("paralysé") of the main verb. It is used when the subject of the sentence receives the action rather than performs it.

• A ti te mire

  ➔ Redundant Object Pronoun with Dislocated Object

  ➔ In Spanish, a direct or indirect object preceded by "a" (especially when it's a personal 'a' or for emphasis) is often "redundantly" doubled with its corresponding object pronoun ("te"). "A ti" clarifies or emphasizes who "te" refers to.

• Je l'ai tellement vu que je la connais par cœur

  ➔ 'Tellement... que' (Intensifier + Result Clause)

  ➔ The structure "tellement... que" (so much/many... that) is used to express a cause-and-effect relationship. "Tellement" intensifies the verb ("vu"), and "que" introduces the consequence or result ("je la connais par cœur").
