Grammar:

• 荒い息を吐き出して

  ➔ Verb (て-form) + いる to indicate ongoing action or state

  ➔ The pattern "お verb + ている" is used to describe an ongoing or habitual action; here, "吐き出して" is the て-form of "吐き出す" (to breathe out).

• 先見据えてる

  ➔ Verb (て-form) + いる to express a continuous or resulting state

  ➔ Here, "先見据えてる" is a casual contraction of "先見を据えている", meaning "having a foresight or looking ahead".

• You better run run away

  ➔ Modal verb "better" + base verb to give advice or strong suggestion

  ➔ The phrase "You better" is an informal way to give advice or warn someone strongly to do something.

• 高鳴る鼓動

  ➔ Noun + の to form a noun phrase

  ➔ The phrase "高鳴る鼓動" combines the verb "高鳴る" (to beat loudly, throb) with "鼓動" (heartbeat, pulse), connected by の to form a noun phrase meaning "the pounding heartbeat" or "throbbing pulse".

• この命かけて

  ➔ Verb (考える) in the volitional/form combined with て to express intent or willingness

  ➔ Although the original phrase "この命かけて" literally means "putting my life on the line," it is often used colloquially or poetically to express doing something with full commitment or determination.
