by Joey Bada$$
(2013)

Uh, lost in his time/I'm just tryna get it like a boss in his prime the artist uses metaphor. The meaning of the line is that as rapper and upcoming artist he is talking about the concrete jungle New York and Hip Hop as a Jungle and how he is in his primes and it is better and better. The effect of this figurative language is to compare hip hop to a jungle which is a crazy, unpredictable place and he is dominating.

In the line ¨Thinking I butterfly, I try catapult caterpillars¨ the author uses metaphor. The meaning of the line is to explain how while the hasn reach metamorphosis or evolved as a rapper he has surpassed their level and is on the apex. The effect of the figurative language is not just to floss on his lyricism but to compare his lyricism do that of a butterfly, which is above while a caterpillar is below. Overall the language contributes to the prideful tone of which connects to my world.
