To cut the long story short (кратко говоря), there is just one way: take you grammar book and read it 10 times, until you understand! Some things will sound logical and somethings no.
Memorize what it does not make sense ... it will make after 2,3,4 years.
Now you don't have another option. Listening to songs or watch movies and russian news will not help you at the beginning of your learning. Just the traditional way of reading grammar books.
