His song "C7osure," which is off of his debut extended play, "7," is about Lil' Nas X telling someone he loves that he needs to grow, even if their worries are still holding him back. 

In the song, Lil' Nas X sings:

"Brand new places I'll choose and I'll go, I know
Embracin' this news I behold unfolding
I know, I know, I know it don't feel like it's time
But I look back at this moment, I'll see that I'm fine
I know, I know, I know it don't feel like it's time
I set boundaries for myself, it's time to cross the line"
