Key Grammar Structures
-
She give me that head and sex
➔ Colloquial Present Simple (third-person singular without 's')
➔ In standard English, the third-person singular subject ("She") in the present simple tense requires an "-s" ending on the verb ("gives"). However, in some informal dialects, particularly African American Vernacular English (AAVE), this "-s" is often omitted, as seen with "She give".
-
Still ain't no yes man
➔ Informal Negation ("ain't no" / Double Negative)
➔ "Ain't no" is an informal and non-standard way of saying "is not a/an" or "are not any". It functions as a double negative ("ain't" and "no") which, in standard English, would cancel each other out to imply a positive, but in informal contexts, it simply emphasizes the negative. Here, it means "is not a yes man."
-
I can't hold up my pants and bands
➔ Phrasal Verb "hold up" + Modal Verb "can't" (inability)
➔ A "phrasal verb" like "hold up" combines a verb ("hold") with a preposition or adverb ("up") to create a new meaning (here, to support or keep from falling). "Can't" is a "modal verb" indicating inability or lack of possibility.
-
Only here for these Benjamins
➔ Ellipsis (Implied Subject and Verb)
➔ "Ellipsis" is the omission of words from a sentence because they are understood from the context. In this line, the subject "I" and the verb "am" are omitted, so the full sentence would be "I am only here for these Benjamins." This is common in informal speech for conciseness.
-
These fuck niggas didn't lend a hand
➔ Idiom/Phrasal Verb "lend a hand" + Past Simple Negative
➔ "To lend a hand" is an "idiom" or "phrasal verb" meaning to help someone. The sentence uses the "Past Simple Negative" form ("didn't lend") to state that the action of helping did not occur in the past.
-
Had to kill 'em, my bad my nigga
➔ Modal Verb "had to" (Past Necessity/Obligation)
➔ "Had to" is the past tense form of "have to," which is used to express necessity or obligation. It means that the action ("kill 'em") was required or unavoidable in the past.
-
I hope all of my bitches get richer
➔ Clause with "hope" (Expressing a Wish/Desire)
➔ The verb "hope" is followed by a "that-clause" (often with "that" omitted) to express a wish or desire for something to happen in the future. Here, the speaker expresses a wish for "all of my bitches" to "get richer."
-
I'ma valet to the Fifths
➔ Informal Future Tense ("I'ma" / "I'm going to")
➔ "I'ma" is a colloquial contraction of "I'm going to," which is an informal way to express future actions or intentions, similar to "I will" but often implying a plan or immediate future.
-
You gon' spray it? Then spray my nigga
➔ Informal Future Tense ("gon'") in a Question + Imperative
➔ "Gon'" is a colloquial contraction of "going to," used here in a question ("Are you going to spray it?"). The second part, "Then spray my nigga," is an "imperative" sentence, giving a direct command or instruction.
-
Like we switched to the gas from the midget
➔ "Like" as a Conjunction (meaning "as if" or "in the way that")
➔ In informal English, "like" is often used as a "conjunction" to introduce a clause that describes how something is done or what something resembles, similar to "as if" or "as though." Here, it compares the current action to "we switched to the gas from the midget."
