Song Analysis (Jahkoy - Poison)

Jahkoy's song poison is a rap/R&B song about a guy professing his love to a girl and using the imagery of poison which has negative connotations of poisoning someone connoting harm in this case it is used in the ideology of influencing someone with a potion of love and him falling under a spell as connoted in lyrics like "I drank the potion, I took a shot, and it's just a motion." Verse 1 is talking about him being committed to the given relationship as he states in lines like "I'll keep it 100" and "If you believe in me, Like I believe in you" showing the signs of him committing to her. The second verse he goes on about looking back at the time they spent together as well as well as how they spent time together as stated in lines like; "Trace the steps that we take" and "We roll up and roll out" showing commitment. This is something that would have to be captured in the main storyline of the song as we have to show a relationship unfolding between the main actor an female.
