HYPERBOLE

Hyperbole, from a Greek word meaning "excess," is a figure of speech that uses extreme
exaggeration to make a point or show emphasis.
EXAMPLES:

 I've told you to clean your room a million times!

 It was so cold, I saw polar bears wearing hats and jackets.
Chandelier – Sia
I'm the one for a good time call
Phone’s blowing up, ringing my doorbell
I feel the love, feel the love…

But I’m holding on for dear life

Won’t look down, won’t open my eyes
Keep my glass full until morning light
‘Cause I’m just holding on for tonight
Help me…

Phone is blowing up’ is hyperbole, as the doorbell sounds do not affect the phone. ‘But I’m
holding on for dear life’, is also another hyperbole because she is not actually going to die from
the doorbell sound.
PERSONIFICATION is when you give an animal or object qualities or abilities that only a
human can have.
EXAMPLES:
The moon smiled at the stars in the sky.
The leaves waved in the wind.
Example in song:

Bob Marley’s songs were all about rebellion, trying to wake his fellow countrymen into a state
of awareness. His lyrics had numerous allegories and metaphors―a writer’s most brilliant
means to spread a message without being persecuted. In this song lies an exemplary
personification―’the high yellow moon won’t come out to play’.
ALLITERATION is the repetition of the same consonant sounds at the beginning of words
that are in close proximity to each other. 
EXAMPLES:
“Bob brought the box of bricks to the basement.” 
Kim carefully cut the cookies after they cooled.

EXAMPLE IN SONG: Alliteration in “Hello” by Adele

I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet.
