Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Excision and Dion Timmer's song Africa center around the idea of identity and celebrating one's African heritage. The repetition of "African Life, African Dream" invokes a sense of pride and connection to Africa, while the lyrics "Does anyone wanna take me down? I am an African Lover, African Dreamer," show a defiance against those who may attempt to diminish or erase one's African identity. The phrase "Just wanna live my life" is a call to embrace one's natural self and live authentically.


The lyrics also touch on the idea of Africa as a dream or a goal. For many people, particularly those of African descent who may have been disconnected from their cultural roots, connecting with Africa and celebrating its rich history and culture is a dream come true. This is particularly relevant in the music industry where African artists are gaining more recognition and influence globally.
