- "Slippin'", which chronicles X's extremely depressing childhood and adolescence.
- X was neglected and abused by his mother, which encouraged him to be successful in the most self-destructive way out of spite. He'd get into trouble at a very young age, landing him in many different group homes and institutions until he finally landed in jail. He was forced to grow up fast to survive and blames himself for his father abandoning him. He also found it very hard to get attached to people, only really forming bonds with stray dogs he'd befriend while sleeping on the streets.
