Analysis: In the song Something you forgot by Lil Wayne he uses multiple similes. An example of this is when he is describing how he feels because he has lost the woman that was in his life. Lil Wayne says "pain, since i've lost you im lost too, feelin like he at the bottom like a horse shoe." He is speaking in first person to specify that its him feeling this pain, he is trying to tell the listner that he is feeling alone and has hit rock bottom and not important, like a lower class person in life. Wayne also says "god knows id do anything for a part two, or to be prayin for the day you come back to me saying that you forgive me, give me another chance, im needing it like a kydney." he's saying he needs another chance to prove her wrong, that he will do right by her. All he wants is a second chance because they were going to have a future together and he was going to marry her and they had a house together, and he is realizing by expressing this in a song that he wants all of those feelings back.
something you forgot- lil wayne
I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending, and that's all I can do (that's all I can do mama)
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart (I hope you hear me)
Pain, since I've lost you, I'm lost too
Nigga feelin' like he at the bottom like a horse shoe
Sorry for the trouble that I put you and your heart through
God knows that I'd do anything for a part two, or to
be prayin' for the day you come back to me, sayin' that you forgive me
Give me another chance, I'm needin' it like a kidney
I don't wanna advance, give me back her hands
Give me back her touch, I don't ask for much
but I fucked up, I know I fucked up, I admit I fucked upbut everybody fuck up, now this other nigga lucked up
Tellin' me and my clique don't give a fuck
Cause um, we from New Orleans, she was from Georgia
She was my down chick, I was her soldier
I was her gangsta, she was my shoulder
You were the pistol to my holster .. BANG!
You've been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying, to keep it under control (I see you hidin' it mama)
You got it down, and your well on your way to the top (keep doin' your thing)
but there is something you forgot
You forgot about the house, you forgot about the ring
I remember everything, I just wanna hear you sing
I remember the love, right after the fights
You can't tell me you don't remember those nights
and if I would cry, then you would cry twice
To me you are the brightest star under sunlight
See take away my title, take away my stripes
You give me back my girl and you give me back my life
Give me back my girl and you give me back my life
See this is just a nightmare, so I blink twice
Open up my eyes hopin' she'd be in my sight
I remember the time, I wish I could bring it back
What she mean to me, is what I mean to rap (what I mean to rap)
You've been hiding, (y'know) never letting it show
Always trying (I see you hidin' it mama)
to keep it under control (but I know you know)
You got it down (I know you do)and your well on your way to the top
(but I wish you and yours nothin' but happiness shawty)
But I hope you haven't forgot about me up in the livin' room watchin' Sports Center
You were cookin' dinner, I was such a sinner, but the Lord is a forgiver
You know they say if you pray then you can get your blessings ordered and deliveredand your boyfriend is not like me
Ma you even went and got a teardrop like me
I remember we would sit at home all day
You called me "Butta", I called you "Babe"My momma asked about you, my partners did too
I know your daughter will be so amazin' like you
and I know you probably wish you never met me, and I just wish you never forget me
and let me say, please don't worry 'bout the women I have been with
No engagement can amount to your friendship
and I hope that nigga know he got a queen, and all I can do is dream .. DAMN!
I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending, and that's all I can do
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart

similie song #1
She's my everything, like a morning girl
She's my angel, up above my world
She's the only one, who understands me
That's why I called her, my new fan league
[She's the only one that I want by my side
She's the only one that I believe can save my life
She makes me wanna be a better man ohh why,
She's higher then the sky, the suns and the moon
She's like a star, like a star, like a star,
First let me say, she's the best of me
Is it cliche, to say she's destiny
It's no one else but her, well at least for me
That's exactly why, I must now repeat
She's the only one that I want by my side
She's the only one that I believe can save my life
She makes me wanna be a better man ohh why,
She's higher then the sky, the suns and the moon
She's like a star, like a star, like a star,
She's my star, my light, starry night, aviator shades, cause she shine so bright
Beats on the G5, songs I write, just so I can take her on a G5 flights
Ya she my type, just my height, she's my fan, she's just right
She's like, “I think we might, go far”, I'm like, “you right”,
She could be my angel wings, her voice sounds like an angel sings
Ya I'll be back with the trade mark strings
Just try to compliment the sounds she brings
She's like, “We could go far”, I'm like, “you you you are”. I'm like, “you you you are”
"You are, my guiding star"
Analysis: The song "She's like a star" by Taio cruz is mainly many words focused upon one simile. Taio Cruz sings that "shes higher than the sky, the suns, and the moon, she's like a star" meaning shes top noch, she's the best, the greatest. He also says "she's the only one that i want by my side, she's the only one i believe can save my life, she makes me wanna be a better man." He is saying he doesnt want any other girl he only wants her, she is his inspiration for becoming a better person, the woman has made him re- think the life he is living and wants to correct his not so possotive past. In the last verse he says "im like, you you you are, you are my guiding star." Taio is letting the listener know that she is the reason for wanting to better himself, if he struggles and thinks about going back to his old ways she is always there to help him back on track. The song is surrounded by the one simile, of her being the one and the best for him.

-i swiched my theme genre from love and romance in country music to love and romance in hip-hop*.
these are the narrative song lyrics i would have chosen for my 2 page analysis if this was my theme/ genre all along.
mad- neyo
She's starin' at me,
I'm sittin', wonderin' what she's thinkin'.
Nobody's talkin',
'Cause talkin' just turns into screamin'.
And now as I'm yellin' over her, She's yellin' over me.
All that that means
Is neither of us is listening, (And what's even worse).
That we don't even remember why were fighting.
So both of us are mad for...
Nothin'(Fighting for).
Nothin'(Crying for).
Nothin'(Whoahhh).
But we won't let it go for
Nothin'(No not for)
Nothin'.
This should be nothin' to a love like what we got.
Oh, baby... I know sometimes
It's gonna rain... But baby, can we make up now'
Cause I can't sleep through the pain(Cant sleep through the pain).
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed(Mad at me).
No, I don't wanna go to bed(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no...
And it gets me upset, girl
When you're constantly accusing.
(Askin' questions like you've already known).
We're fighting this war, baby
When both of us are losing.(This ain't the way that love is supposed to go).
Whoa... [What happened to workin' it out].
We've fallen into this place
Where you ain't backin' down
And I ain't backin' down.
So what the hell do we do now...
It's all for...Nothin'(Fighting for).
Nothin'(Crying for).
Nothin'(Whoah).
But we won't let it go forNothin'(No not for)
Nothin'.
This should be nothin' to a love like what we got.
Oh, baby... I know sometimes
It's gonna rain... But baby, can we make up now'
Cause I can't sleep through the pain(Cant sleep through the pain).
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed(Mad at me).
No, I don't wanna go to bed(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed(Mad at me)
Ohhh no no no...
Oh baby this love ain't gonna be perfect, (Perfect, perfect, oh oh).
And just how good it's gonna be.
We can't fuss and we can't fight
Long as everything alright between us
Before we go to sleep.
Baby, we're gonna be happy.
I know sometimesIt's gonna rain...
But baby, can we make up now'
Cause I can't sleep through the pain(Cant sleep through the pain).
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed(Mad at you),
And I don't want you to go to bed(Mad at me).

Narative analysis Bowwow- you could get it all.
Analysis- This song falls under my theme/ genre and is a narrative becuase Bowwow is telling a story about how he is head over heals for this girl and she can have what ever she wants from him, "she could get it all." In the first verse of the song Bowwow is telling how he likes a girl but shes hearing things such as he's going to play her and he's pretty much jsut a big stud and not to take a chance on him. His responce to this was that she should take a chance becuase "behind every man is a woman who can change him." He says that if people ask about the girl, he will tell them "she's the one." He also says that "he felt alot of love for her even though they was still young." He was basically stating age is just a number. Bowwow then goes on to continue saying how as long as she doesnt break up with him he wont break up with her. In this song there is an obvious physical atraction, that Bowwow clearly wants with her.
bowwow- you could get it all.
