[Chorus: Mai Khalil]
Are you all all alone
Only you in history? x2
[Verse 1: Lowkey]
Al-Khwarizmi estimated the circumference of the globe
At a time when Europe thought the earth was flat
And couldn't tell the time of day, the astrolabe paved the way
For the clock now I'm about to turn it back
Was the medicine of Ibn Sina perceived as backwards
When Oxford scholars deemed bathing a heathen practice?
History from Aristotle to Al-Kindi as we gather
Innovations of Ibn Haytham to da Vinci and the camera
Ask Roger Bacon, Galileo and Adelard of Bath
Ibn Shatir before Copernicus, century and a half
House of wisdom, books weight in gold, answers to conundrums
Zheng He sailed the sea before da Gama and Columbus
You are not who they say you are, you're blessed with a choice
Here since the 700's, look at King Offa’s coins
You can do whatever it is that you wanna do
There's a crater named after Al-Ma'mun on the moon
So fly
[,Chorus: Mai Khalil]
Are you all all alone
Only you in history?
Are you all all alone
Only you in history?
Are you all all alone
Only you in history? x2
