Gramática:

I wanna turn those blue lights into strobe lights
➔ "wanna" (want to) + infinitivo
➔ "Wanna" es una contracción coloquial de "want to". Es seguida por la forma base del verbo (infinitivo sin 'to').
-
Don't you run when you hear the sirens coming
➔ Imperativo negativo con "Don't" + Presente Simple en cláusula de tiempo
➔ La oración comienza con un imperativo negativo "Don't run" (aconsejando no realizar una acción). "when you hear the sirens coming" es una cláusula de tiempo que usa el presente simple, aunque se refiere a un evento futuro.
-
because the sirens' not coming for you
➔ Contracción con posesivo y presente continuo
➔ "sirens'" es un posesivo que muestra que las sirenas poseen el acto de venir. "not coming" implica el presente continuo.
-
You apologized any harm in that
➔ Pregunta de coletilla (informal)
➔ "any harm in that" funciona como una pregunta de coletilla, buscando confirmación de que no hubo daño al disculparse. El verbo auxiliar está implícito.
-
If you've done nothing wrong
➔ Cláusula condicional Tipo 1: Condicional Cero
➔ "If + Presente Perfecto, ..." Esta cláusula establece una condición. Si la condición es verdadera (no has hecho nada malo), algo más le sigue. Esta declaración en particular implica que una consecuencia habitual o universalmente verdadera seguirá.
-
Level of a felon when I've done nothing wrong
➔ Comparación implícita + Presente Perfecto
➔ Hay una comparación implícita que se está haciendo: "¿Por qué me tratan al nivel de un delincuente...?" y también el uso del presente perfecto, "I've done nothing wrong", implica un tiempo hasta ahora.
-
Blood on my hands but I don't know where it's from
➔ Conjunción "but" + Pregunta indirecta
➔ "but" conecta dos ideas contrastantes. "where it's from" es una pregunta indirecta, que funciona como una cláusula sustantiva (objeto del verbo "know"). El orden de las palabras es sujeto + verbo, no el orden de pregunta típico.
-
How's man like you gonna make me a convict?
➔ Lenguaje informal (How's = How is), "gonna" (going to)
➔ "How's" es una contracción de "How is". "Gonna" es una contracción coloquial de "going to", que indica una intención o plan futuro.
