Kesha Sebert's Rainbow album reflects the artist's emotional and spiritual journey through a difficult time in her life, with songs reflecting her transformation from suffering to awakening, freedom, and self-acceptance. Praying depicts a profound journey of emotional healing, where Kesha finds strength in forgiving and freeing herself from past wounds, while Woman is a powerful statement about the independence and freedom of a brave, strong, and independent woman in her life. Furthermore, Learn to Let Go highlights the importance of letting go and releasing the trauma and negative memories that weigh you down so that you can move forward with more lightness and happiness, without being constantly haunted by the painful past. Overall, this album is not just a collection of songs, but a meaningful, introspective journey, where each lyric and melody forms a powerful narrative of hope, courage, and self-liberation, ultimately representing not only Kesha's personal struggles but also inspiring many listeners to rise above adversity. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how these three songs complement each other in depicting the healing and resilience process through figurative language such as metaphor, personification, and irony, as well as the life values contained within the songs. The results of this study are expected to provide further insight into the relationship between music, life experiences, and individual healing processes, as well as their important role in rebuilding self-confidence and hope.Downloads
