Okay can someone PLEASE point out figurative language, (Simile, metaphor, idiom, etc.) in tthe song “The climb”! Just list the phrase and put next to it which one it is.

Then if you can point out the poetic sound devices? THIS WOULD GREaTLY help me! I had volleybal tonite and i just got home so i had to wait till now and i really wanna go to bed and cant spend aton of time on this. lol PLEASE HELP!!! here are the lyrics:

I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I’m going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they might knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I’m going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on,
cause

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I’m going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Somebody’s you’re going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

well i’m not sure this is the best song choice, cuz there’s not a whole lot, but the whole chorus is a metaphor (that’s the one without like or as, right?)… she’s not REALLY trying to move a mountain/climb it, the mountain is a metaphor for her issues i guess.

“The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they might knock me down…” that’s personification

I THINK “uphill battle” might be an idiom, but i’m not completely sure.
