You ever ponder your demise?

When the fight′s withdrawn

And lights have gone out from your eyes

The moment when they mourning and they realise

That you only gon' be livin′ on in the mind

'Til you fade there too

And your grave ain't new

It often cross the mind like Shéyaa′s tattoo

Reminds me to be mindful what I pray into

In what I hope to be

And what I aim to do

Cos I know that most of what I obsess

Over ain′t that deep

And the cash excess will not follow me

To the life that's next

So I don′t A-B what I have against

Any man's proceeds or what he possess

Gotta be content

But perpetually unsatisfied with the character inside

And the legacy I plan to leave for the family of mine

So I′mma shoot for the moon 'til my fate and I collide

And among the stars is the place that I reside

Woah, woah

One day we′ll be celestials

Mmm, one day we'll be celestials

(One day we gon' all turn to celestials)

Woah, woah

One day we′ll be celestials

Mmm, one day we′ll be celestials

I know that getting older is something that we supposed to

But it's funny how I′m gratified when my daughter grows

But agonize when the folks do

She reminds me of a life to look forward to

They remind me of the life that we gon' lose

I ain′t ready to be eulogizin'

Not before they see me realizin′

Every prayer that they been recitin'

I know that it's gon′ be Godly timin′

I just hope it's on the horizon

Inadequacy been petroleum for my drive

But it didn′t deplete as I clocked up all the mileage

Like I hoped it would

So I had to park that mindset

Cos I got so exhausted and tired

Of that pressure

Of tryna measure up by all measures

Or never treasurin' all of my own treasures

But love is high octane

It′s gon' make this thing run better

′Til I cross the finish and drift on into forever

And then I'll be celestial

Woah, woah

One day we'll be celestials

Mmm, one day we′ll be celestials

(One day we gon′ all turn to celestials)

Woah, woah

One day we'll be celestials

Mmm, one day we′ll be celestials

My mom said don't let me catch you flauntin′

Just know the grave puts that in check

Kings and pawns return to the same box in the end

Rich and poor can both be too broke to pay respect

Time ain't hoarded

Live your life like your days are spent

You′ll afford to

Pay the bill on your date with death

Just make yo bed

Watch the talk that's comin' out your lips

Is you really speakin′?

Or are you lettin′ fear be your ventriloquist

Talkin' bout some "wait, what if I miss?"

It′s better that you try than you die saying 'what if?"

That′s why I keep big steppin' on this road

Movin′ intentional

And if you step on my toes

You gon' need medical

One thing about these seconds, they go

So it's inevitable

One day we all gon′ be celestials

Woah, woah

One day we′ll be celestials

Mmm, one day we'll be celestials

(One day we gon′ all turn to celestials)

Woah, woah

One day we'll be celestials

Mmm, one day we′ll be celestials

One day we gon' all turn to celestials

We all become memories then galaxies

One day we gon′ all turn to celestials

We all become memories then galaxies

That's what we'll be

Celestials
