Lyrics:
Walking through the fields of gold
In the distance, bombs can fall
Boy, we're running free
Facing light in the flow
And in the cherry trees
We're hiding from the world
But the golden age is over
But the golden age is over

Boy, we're dancing through the snow
Waters freeze, the wind blows
Did you ever feel
We're falling as we grow
No, I would not believe
The light could ever go
But the golden age is over
But the golden age is over

Listen, I can hear the call
As I'm walking through the door

Did you ever dream
We'd miss the mornings in the sun
The playgrounds in the streets
The bliss of slumberland
And we are family
No matter what they say
But boys are meant to flee
And run away one day

The golden age is over
Oh, the golden age is over
But the golden age is over
The golden age is over

Say what you want about the games, but Ubisoft surely knows how to pick trailer songs.

[orbs]

this always takes me back to my teenage years... sad how things change

[ratpatat]

Elise: Come over
Arno: I can't
Elise: I'm home alone
Arno: 1:35

[gameplays]

The golden age of assassin's creed is over 😔 rip

[lunamudblood]

Walking through fields of gold
In the distance, bombs can fall
Boy we're running free
Facing light in the flow
And in the cherry trees
We're hiding from the world
But the golden age is over
But the golden age is over

Boy, we're dancing through the snow
Waters freeze, the wind blows
Did you ever feel
We're falling as we grow
No I would not believe
The light could ever go
But the golden age is over
But the golden age is over

Listen, I can hear the call
As I'm walking through the door

Did you ever dream we'd miss
The mornings in the sun
The playgrounds in the streets
The bliss of slumber land
Boy, we're family
No matter what they say
But boys are made to flee
And run away one day

When the golden age is over
Oh the golden age is over
But the golden age is over
The golden age is over

Just like almost everybody here, I came for the game; but now I listen to this song for the story in the lyrics and it’s beautiful melody - a song about childhood and the sad reality. Sometimes tears still flow down from my eyes.

Ubisoft : Hey Woodkid ! We would want to...
Woodkid : Let's go make some crazy trailer !

[xBen_III]

Mostly everyone came here because of Unity. I must admit I did too the first time, but now I come back when I reminisce about the days when there wasn’t a worry in the world as a kid. This track is beautiful and it perfectly captures that moment in your life when you realize it’s time to come to grips with reality and move onto adulthood. Gonna miss those days forever. I’m sure everyone does.

I feel like a assassin when the trumpets starts. Well, good job, Ubisoft.

[dannynguyen]

Woodkid actually makes the best songs for cinematic trailers

[DasBoot]

Damn this brings me back to my Teenage years… I miss it 🥲. I love Ac unity

“Did you ever feel
We’re falling as we grow”

[TheMultiBeats]

Somehow!!! this song beats Run boy run AND Iron by far... well its just wonderfull! its easy the best Woodkid song i ever will hear

[Zaakiiee]

heard this on a AC trailer and i loved it sm

[rickblaine]

I regularly put this on in the ps4 Spotify while parkouring around in Unity. Freakin awesome.

[KizaruB]

This song makes me reminisce about the old Assassin’s Creed games. They felt like historical simulators, as opposed to the generic RPGs the franchise eventually became. Modern Ubisoft cares more about Helix credits and colored-rarity loot than good stories and well-paced games.

[m.h]

I’m surprised this doesn’t have as many views as other Woodkid’s musics. It’s so underrated for what it has to offer. Woodkid never disappoints!

[stuartjones]

i really like every thing about this song, but the war like feel of iron has special place in my heart

1:35 when flight attendant said that we landed at France

[atharvachitre]

This song takes me back to my childhood when me and my friends gather around in the morning 😌
