Having penned tracks like "NUMB," "I Don't Wanna Do This Anymore," "Depression & Obsession," and "Dead Inside," it's clear that XXXTentacion was prone to bouts of melancholy. While these dark emotions served as a creative muse for the eclectic artist, they also seemed to fuel a preoccupation with his own death.

In August 2017, he posted and deleted a short video clip to Instagram in which he appeared to hang himself from a tree. According to HipHopDx, XXXTentacion quickly returned to the social media site to calm his understandably freaked out fans. He claimed the scene was "a piece of the music video" that he was trying to preview. He also claimed that he would never joke around about suicide because "I had a girl kill herself in my f***in' hotel room."

Several months later, the rapper posted another chilling and since-deleted video to social media that was re-uploaded by others. In that vid, he envisioned a worst case scenario in which he will "die a tragic death or some s**t" and be unable to "see out his dreams." He said he hoped "the kids perceived my message and were able to make something of themselves and able to take my message and use it and turn it into something positive. And to at least have a good life."
