Song used: How to love- Lil Wayne

 How to love is a song released by little wayne in 2010. At first glance, it seems like the kind of song that is about some girl that the singer used to date in the past and how he regrets losing her.  However if you listen to the lyrics and interpret them accordingly, hes really acting as a third person omniscient and is explaining the girl's love and social life. The song is easy to understand and is not hard to analyze, after listening to it a few times. The song contains some literary devices and has some "meanings" but as mentioned, its pretty self explanatory.

The song is about a young girl, most likely in her young 20's and basically the song just explains her social and love life. it points out how she unnecessarily feels insecure about herself even though she is very pretty, "you cant have a man look at you for 5 seconds, without you feeling insecure.". The singer then states later in the song, after explaining how she feels about  herself "i just want you to know that you deserve the best, your beautiful." Now the as mentioned earlier, the song explains her love life, this can be seen in many lines in the song such as "you never really had luck, couldnt never figure out how to love." and it can also be seen when the singer says "you had alot of moment that didnt last forever, now your in this corner trying to pull it together."

  1. In the first paragraph, you misspelled Lil Wayne. I did like how you pointed out how he is telling the story about the young girl. I love how you pointed out the real meaning behind the song. It shows a different side to Lil Wayne. Unfortunately, you did not follow the paragraph guidelines.
