- Nathaniel Ante: This song was composed by a gentleman named Wabano Owanapei, and he made it for a honor song.
So you can use a honor song for multiple things, like if you're honoring graduation students or if you're honoring a first-time dancer in the arena.
So it's a honor song that's kind of a multi-use for honoring for anything that is requiring a honor.
