English subjunctive

The English subjunctive is used to form sentences that do not describe known objective facts. These include statements about one's state of mind, such as opinion, belief, purpose, intention, or desire. The subjunctive mood is also used for statements that are contrary to fact, such as If I were a giraffe, … (subjunctive), as distinguished from I was a giraffe. Subjunctive statements often occur in dependent clauses, such as the subjunctive example in the preceding sentence. It contrasts with the indicative mood, which is used for statements of fact, such as He speaks English.

In Modern English, the subjunctive form of a verb often looks identical to the indicative form, and thus subjunctives are not a very visible grammatical feature of English. For most verbs, the only distinct subjunctive form is found in the third person singular of the present tense, where the subjunctive lacks the -s ending: It is necessary that he see a doctor (contrasted with the indicative he sees). However, the verb be has not only a distinct present subjunctive (be, as in I suggest that he be removed) but also a past subjunctive were (as in If he were rich, …).

Bruno Mars

Peter Gene Hernandez (born October 8, 1985), professionally known by his stage name Bruno Mars, is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and choreographer. Born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, by a family of musicians, Mars began making music at a young age and performed in various musical venues in his hometown throughout his childhood. He graduated from high school and moved to Los Angeles to pursue a musical career. Mars produced songs for other artists, co-founding the production team The Smeezingtons.

Mars had an unsuccessful stint with Motown Records, but then signed with Atlantic in 2009. He became recognized as a solo artist after lending his vocals to the songs "Nothin' on You" by B.o.B, and "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy, which were international successes, and for which he co-wrote the hooks. His debut studio album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010), was anchored by the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles "Just the Way You Are" and "Grenade", as well as the number-five single "The Lazy Song". His second album, Unorthodox Jukebox, released in 2012, peaked at number one in the United States. The album spawned the international singles "Locked Out of Heaven", "When I Was Your Man" and "Treasure".

I Be

Just just in case you don't know who we be
Just just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be, I be bone
Me I run the playin' field
Me I be ownin' the thrown
He be, he be, he be coffee, he be, he be, he be bone
Me I do it nicely
Me I be heir to the thrown
Y'all wanna hear it? Naw y'all don't wanna hear it
You don't want coffdeezy, jump up, get up easy
Purple giant, death defiant, but I creep up on you quite
Me animator, slowly we raisin' the dead
Complicator of clause plans, schemes, scandalous, curious things
How can you hand various things?
Bicarious beings?
What?
Rollin' 'round these hills on count of countless of feels
Of raw deals I'm after the cheapest of thrills
Killin' off a slew of folk watchin' 'em all fall
But really man it's you a choke
Guelish like orathal do my best to hit yo' region
Rollin' deep like we was legion for a season
We will let be leavin'
Karma heazin' steady breathin'
Just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be bone, I be peddy dee
(Check it out 'cuz)
He be, he be coffee, he be, he be bone, he be peddy dee
(Bonavilles)
One for the projects, two for the thugs
Three for the king pin sippin' ear drums
Over Damascus where he turned me around
Put a word in ma mouth and a sound
(Get down)
[Incomprehensible]
[Incomprehensible]
Praise God we ain't destructive no more
[Incomprehensible]
Let yo' mind take you to the end of the road
Choose to do right but chose to get blowed
Educate ya' mind to young to know code
Grits and peddy dee be squad like flip mode
Just just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be, I be bone
Me I run the playin' field
Me I be ownin' the thrown
He be, he be, he be coffee, he be, he be, he be bone
Me I do it nicely
Me I be heir to the thrown
I'm the one they call bonifide
City boy countrified
Known for that southern fide
Bring it to you, any, however you want it, I got it
Get it and never escape, give it up slow brah
Checkin' for yo' soul brah
You stumble down the wrong road
Steppin' on the wrong toes
Now we 'bout to get it right
Stitch it up, switch it up
Peddy dee click it up
Nashville show me love
Jacksonville it's ya' boy
Sandalwood put it up
Clearin' out the smoke screen
Step into the unseen
Sober from that sticky green
Wrap it up like I still beem
Scotty what's the situation?
(The fun years of desperation)
Well let 'em know we on location ready for the confrontation
Just just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be, I be bone
Me I run the playin' field
Me I be ownin' the thrown
He be, he be, he be coffee, he be, he be, he be bone
Me I do it nicely
Me I be heir to the thrown
Just just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be, I be bone
Me I run the playin' field
Me I be ownin' the thrown
He be, he be, he be coffee, he be, he be, he be bone
Me I do it nicely
Me I be heir to the thrown
Just just in case you don't know who we be
It's the crew who represents nicely
State to state no matter what city
Can't you see it's us that's rockin' yo' world
I be, I be, I be coffee, I be, I be, I be bone
Me I run the playin' field
Me I be ownin' the thrown
He be, he be, he be coffee, he be, he be, he be bone
Me I do it nicely
Me I be heir to the thrown
