Imagine Dragons Release “Children of the Sky (a Starfield song)” to Coincide With New Bethesda Game.

Imagine Dragons are no strangers to the video game world, writing and recording the song Enemy with JID for the animated Netflix show Arcane League of Legends. Now the band has created a new song to inspired by the new Bethesda role playing game Starfield™ called Children of the Sky.

Imagine Dragons frontman dan Reynolds, who is a video game aficionado himself says about the song “Bethesda created iconic games we’ve been playing for most of our lives, and we’re honored to have collaborated on this song for Starfield. The song, like the game, asks some of the most difficult questions we face as humans trying to find our place in the universe.”

The game’s composer Inon Zur worked with the band to incorporate elements from the game’s score into the song. “The band has created an amazing, emotional, and memorable song, and I joined them in crafting the Starfield motif into the song as well as iconic elements from the Main Theme and the Starfield orchestral treatment” say Zur. “The outcome is a massive celebration for Starfield and I hope that the group’s fans as well as gamers from all over the world will find it as exhilarating and magnificent as we all feel.”

Starfield™ is scheduled to be released on September 6, 2023

Children of the Sky Lyrics
By Imagine Dragons

Some days when I’m dreamin’
I think of how far I have come
All my life’s led to this
And now I see what I’ve become

I always had doubted that I could ever be someone
That mattered, that shattered all these glass ceilings up above
All that I want is to see all the things that I could be
Destiny’s calling me

We’re children of the sky
Flying up so high
Let me be that one
To find the brightest sun

We’re children of the sky
Guided by the light
Let me reach new heights
To stars amongst the night
We’re children of the sky

I can not give up hope though there are storms within my seas
Won’t turn back, when I lack, sometimes it’s hard just to believe
I’ve wanted to save us from ourselves
Just wanted to raise up, to save us from ourselves

All that I want is to see all the things that we could be
Destiny’s calling me

We’re children of the sky
Flying up so high
Let me be that one
To find the brightest sun

We’re children of the sky
Guided by the light
Let me reach new heights
Stars amongst the night

When we look back, what will we see?
We were a part of everything
Up in the heavens, down in the seas
We were a part of everything

When we look back, what will we see?
We were a part of everything
Up in the heavens, down in the seas
We were part of everything

We’re children of the sky (children of the sky)
Flying up so high (stars amongst the night)
Children of the sky (children of the sky)
Take me to new heights

We’re children of the…
