This quote is from the press release from 2021 when we released the song: “Starborn truly represents the power metal side of Gladenfold at its purest. It might be one of our catchiest songs to date, but also quite different compared to other songs we are preparing for the next album. Yet even though the song won’t make it to the album, we felt it is just too damn good one to be left out or go unnoticed. So, it became evident that we should release this one separately as a stand-alone single.
I understand this.(Chorus only) Stars, let the dragon born in me make me world the us this plain Shine to me Stars, let the warrior rise in me and the land into the light lead us into victory
Gladenfold - Starborn The shine of distant stars assembling again The voice is calling me to join the ride Ages ago we rode on a storm across the universe Now it is time to take back what is mine to lead my holy nights Stars - let the dragon born in me Make me worthy of this blade Shine through me Stars - let the warrior rise in me Guide my hand into the light Lead us into victory All things must come into an end in time my brothers, this is farewell Let the waves wash by But I will be here standing until my purpose is finally fulfilled All I ever wanted was to protect and serve for those who cannot protect themselves I am the beacon in the dark The storm that cleanse the land I will show you the way through the fields of fire The shine of distant stars assembling again Their enchanting voices are calling me to take a ride again Ages ago we rode on a storm across the universe Now it is time to take back what is mine to lead my holy nights Stars - let the dragon born in me Make me worthy of this blade Shine through me Stars - let the warrior rise in me Guide my hand into the light Lead us into victory The starborn king Rise to rule again
