Music as Literature

Yes! We can consider music as literature because every song has some sort of background and central message. When you hear a song you can figure out what the artist's tone is and the mood they are trying to convey to the readers. A song is a way of telling a story, just that instead of reading it you are listening to it. Most people, if not all, listen to music occasionally whether it's to feel better or just enjoy the rhythm. In my opinion, the difference between a novel, rap, poem, song, opera, and a symphony is that way that it is told. These are all different forms of literature that are expressed differently.
