Grace Notes in music represent a note that is played so fast that it doesn’t get a beat. Think of it as a blur.

Some times they’re used in order to allow the sheet music to be more legible. Rather than seeing a bunch of 16th notes sliding into a downbeat (quarter note) its not odd to see Grace Notes in place so that the music is more user friendly to read read by the performer.
