The collaboration showcases the diverse talents of its featured artists. Mista Silva, a trailblazer for Afrobeats in the UK, complements Enam’s enchanting sound with his dynamic rap, while Lyrical Joe, a prominent figure in Ghanaian music, brings his lyrical prowess to the forefront. The essence of the song is rooted in a message of reclamation—calling for individuals and communities to realign with their ancestral teachings and cultural heritage, which have been overshadowed by historical invasions and miseducation. "Candle Light" serves as a reminder that understanding one's identity as a creator of destiny is crucial for awakening the African nations.
Through its rich soundscape and profound themes, "Candle Light" illuminates the need for a return to the spiritual wisdom of our ancestors. The track asserts that before Western appropriation, Africans possessed a deep understanding of spiritual mysteries and the cosmos that remains relevant today. By embracing these teachings, individuals can transcend beyond the superficiality of modern existence, connecting with the elements and the divine essence that form our reality. Ultimately, the chorus reverberates the powerful affirmation: "You are GOD!"—a call to recognise and celebrate the divine potential within each of us.
