Key Grammar Structures

-
But then every time he talk he be kinda sly
➔ Informal Subject-Verb Agreement (Omission of -s)
➔ In standard English, the third-person singular present simple requires an "-s" ending, so "he talk" should be "he talks". This omission is common in informal speech.
-
when it counts he's no where to be found
➔ Passive Infinitive
➔ "to be found" is a passive infinitive. It means that "he" is the object of the action of finding, rather than the one performing the action.
-
I would have made plans, it was outta my hands
➔ Past Modals (Third Conditional Implied)

-
Outta know that I know better
➔ Informal Contraction "Outta" for "Ought to"

➔ Phrasal Verb "Keep on" + Gerund

-
Whenever you talk sweeter / You're digging that hole deeper
