In "Firework," Katy Perry uses similes, metaphors, and hyperbole to encourage her listeners to recognize their own inner worth. For example, Katy Perry uses the metaphor "You're a firework/ Come on, show 'em what you're worth" (13-14). Perry compares a person to a firework, which implies that every person has something special and bright to show the world. Perry's metaphor encourages low-spirited listeners to shine like a firework.
