Tactile imagery:" You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise".

Visual imagery: ’"Cause I walk like I've got oil wells Pumping in my living room."

Visual imagery: "Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides"

Visual imagery: Did you want to see me broken?
Auditory imagery: Weakened by my soulful cries?

Olfactory imagery: Diggin in my own backyard.
Auditory imagery: Does my haughtiness offend you?

Tactile imagery: You may cut me with your eyes.
Visual imagery: But still, like air, I’ll rise.

Visual Imagery: That I dance like I've got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?

Tactile Imagery: Up from a past that’s rooted in pain.

Visual Imagery: I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide, welling and swelling I bear in the tide

Visual Imagery: Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear.
