[Verse 1]
Monks bent low by candlelight,
One more page before the dawn.
Then Gutenberg lit up the room—
The quiet centuries were gone.

Steam rolled over fields of iron,
Copper climbed the city walls.
Every age remakes the world
Without asking our approval.

[Pre-Chorus]
Coal became motion.
Current became light.
Signals became everywhere
Overnight.

[Chorus]
We're turning sunlight into inference.
Turning questions into flight.
Turning yesterday's impossible
Into something we use tonight.

No magic.
No mystery.

Just another revolution
Hiding in plain sight.

We're turning sunlight into inference.

[Verse 2]
Someone built a thinking engine,
Someone cooled another rack.
Photons crossed a million rooftops,
Never once looked back.

Somewhere deep inside the silicon
Patterns learned to sing.
Not replacing human voices—
Just amplifying everything.

[Bridge]
Don't tell me
This is only software.

Don't tell me
This is only code.

Every age invents a river,
Then forgets
Who dug the road.

[Final Chorus]
We're turning sunlight into inference.
Just as paper once became
Every library,
Every lesson,
Every whispered name.

We're turning sunlight into inference.
One more ordinary day.

Until our children ask us,

"What did people do
Before it worked this way?"

[Outro]
Coal.
Steam.
Copper.

Glass.

Silicon.

Inference.
