[Verse 1]
Skin on glass, we’re moving fast, but reflections
Show me that we’re stagnant inside, while the world’s passing by
I feel some stares, don’t need to care, got distractions
Scrolling through my feed, there you are, turning thoughts into laughs
– Exposing me to myself, is it so easy to know me? –
[Pre-Chorus 1]
‘Cause – everything you say is about me
Through this screen, makes me feel we share a template
It’s like everything you say is about me
Through a screen, makes me feel we share a template
[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
[Verse 2]
You tell your jokes, my life exposed and it kills me
Remember Lauryn said it feels soft, but your words are so rough
And my friends who are from Persia and Beirut
Lived different lives, yet know what it’s like
[Pre-Chorus 2]
They say: “Everything you say could be ‘bout me”
Through a screen, could it be we share the same template
Everything you say is about me
Through a screen, tell me please – is there a template?
[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
[Bridge]
It feels like I’m a copy
It feels like I’m a copy – thought I am, who I am
It feels like I’m a copy
Can you read my mind?
‘Cause I would sure remember
[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
Skin on glass, we’re moving fast, but reflections
Show me that we’re stagnant inside, while the world’s passing by
I feel some stares, don’t need to care, got distractions
Scrolling through my feed, there you are, turning thoughts into laughs
– Exposing me to myself, is it so easy to know me? –
[Pre-Chorus 1]
‘Cause – everything you say is about me
Through this screen, makes me feel we share a template
It’s like everything you say is about me
Through a screen, makes me feel we share a template
[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
[Verse 2]
You tell your jokes, my life exposed and it kills me
Remember Lauryn said it feels soft, but your words are so rough
And my friends who are from Persia and Beirut

[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
[Bridge]
It feels like I’m a copy
It feels like I’m a copy – thought I am, who I am
It feels like I’m a copy
Can you read my mind?
‘Cause I would sure remember
[Chorus]
Have you been to Masr
Have you met my family and know how I‘ve grown up
Have you seen my life
Can you read my mind
‘Cause I would sure remember if I had been to India
