Quote

"That that don't kill you only makes you stronger, and the will to succeed will only feed the hunger." -Nelly "N Dey Say"

This song is a remake of an older song, but besides the chorus and tune, most of the song is a lot different. I always liked this song by Nelly because it's not really his typical type of song. It seemed different and the overall song has a good message. It talks about failure and trying to keep going with life. I like this one line because the saying "That which doesn't kill you only makes you stronger," is a very common one which I have always believed in. I do think that the struggles people go through make the person who they are, and although it may bring out the worst in some people, I think if you look deep enough, you will find how, in some way, it did make that person stronger. This version of that saying kind of rhymes and has flow, and I think of this song and this particular line whenever I hear that kind of message.

I really like this quote. I have always heard "What don't kill you makes you stronger," and I completely agree with you on this. I think certain situations and circumstances DO add to the person's character, mostly for the best. I also like what you added about this message meaning something because it's not really an ordinary message/song Nelly would sing.
