[Hook]

[Verse 1: Jean Deaux]

Mama said don't look right in the closet
Mama said that when I think I lost it, know
I just started to glow, started to glow

Mama said don't let no boys get in my mind
Mama said I'd just run right outta time, no
When I feel confined, go

And it is like a cycle
I hope my fruit don't ripe no more
Don't ripe no more

I'm just stuck in outer space
What you know 'bout outer space? No
Baby you should take notes

[Verse 2: SZA]

Mama said ignore the beast under your bed
Become the beast instead
Fuck a fairy tale happiness is fraudulent

Mama said know otherwise
She got three eyes

Pray for yourself
No one else
Guess I still believe in fairy tales

Women's intuition
Tired of missionary
Born in sanctuary
Of your soul
I hope you notice that

All the missin' pieces of me you
What you know about outer space?
What you know 'bout outer space?
Outer space

Jean Deaux

Consciously evasive of being confined to one style, 24-year-old Jean Deaux made a name for herself outside her native Chicago during the mid-2010s with output ranging from R&B-oriented pop to low-key house, along with a wide variety of cross-genre guest appearances. The rapper, singer, and songwriter was involved with acting and poetry, then made major inroads as a musical artist starting in the early 2010s. SoundCloud uploads and featured appearances on tracks by the likes of Isaiah Rashad, Mick Jenkins, Saba, Mykki Blanco, and Smino. In 2017, Deaux issued the spaced-out house track “Father Time” followed by breakout independent releases like “Wikipedia,” a dreamy number somewhere between Little Dragon and Erykah Badu. The following year, Deaux’s output continued apace with more singles, highlighted by “Energy”, “Back 2 You”, and “Due To Me”. The Chicago artist unveiled her first full body of work in October of 2018, KRASH–a stellar debut showcasing Deaux’s dynamic voice, songwriting abilities, and versatile sound.
