Aluna Francis sings here of requiring intellectual prowess from would-be suitors. "You have to challenge [men]: It's like, 'Beat me at chess' - that's sexy to me," the AlunaGeorge chanteuse told Billboard magazine. She added that as a woman, "being in control, being the boss, doesn't always have to be, 'What a bitch. She's so angry.'"
When Aluna Francis started writing the lyrics, it was initially a song about knowing what she wants in life. However, she realized it was missing something. "So many times I have known deep inside what I want, without the confidence to actually state it, so others with stronger voices just tell me what I'm getting and I let them," the singer explained to Fader. "I wanted to change that so I added lyrics that would give me the strength to speak and take action, not just wish; this song became a reminder to take control."
