The title track off Chris Brown‘s X finds the singer moving on from a past relationship.

“X” begins as a quiet, subdued number, with a slower tempo and minimal instrumentation. But soon, a drum machine picks up the pace, Brown making a sudden, impassioned declaration, his voice on edge: “I swear to god I’m moving on.”
