about
Multifaceted BC-born, Toronto-based duo, Once A Tree, share their shiny new single, Born For This. The track follows their win of Best Electronic Album Of The Year at the 2018 Indigenous Music Awards for their EP, Phoenix. Comprised of couple, Jayli and Hayden Wolf, Once A Tree’s roots are founded by an unappalled, complementary partnership. With a title and sound reflective of their unique dynamic and creative hustle, Born For This is featured in the National launch campaign of Nissan’s latest addition – the Nissan KICKS. Listen to the track now, and watch the Nissan campaign here.
“We went to a writing camp in Nicaragua with SOCAN, and I think it gave us the energy and stamina,” Hayden Wolf comments on the organic process. “We were making one full track every day and the turnaround time on this project was so crazy that I think it gave us that extra energy boost to make sure we locked it in time.”
“When we were doing the commercial, it was night shoots, so we would go back to the hotel and record to get the song done in time,” adds Jayli Wolf.
lyrics
Feel the night?
Dark fire
You afraid?
I can navigate
Up in smoke
Lets go
Follow me
Let’s accelerate
Here we go now
it’s our time
We were born for this
Here we go now
Stars align
We were born for this
I’ll show you the way
Let’s go
I’ll show you the way
Let’s accelerate
Kick it, Kick it
[Let’s go]
Let’s accelerate
Kick it, Kick it
Gold - Star - Go - Hard
Get it done
Go get it done
Gold - Star - Go - Hard
Get it done
Go get it done
Here we go now
it’s our time
We were born for this
Here we go now
Stars align
We were born for this (x2)
We were born for this
I’ll show you the way
Let’s go
I’ll show you the way
Let’s accelerate
Kick it, Kick it
[Let’s go]
Let’s accelerate
Kick it, Kick it
