Into the Unknown

Upon the shoulders of men I lay, as my final voyage commences
Down the aisle I slowly sway, presenting myself to the masses
Bestowed with words of praise that honour my greatest achievements
Delving into sacred memories and reminiscing my finest moments

Farewell my friends, I enter the unknown

Once I leave I shall never return to this congregation
Well wishes and goodbyes met with a bittersweet ovation
I walk into the unknown, none know what lies ahead
This quest I face alone, on an uncharted path I tread

Farewell my friends, I enter the unknown

As I burst into flames I ascend to the heavenly sky
None shall forget my name and the legacy I leave behind
I enter the celestial gates, my journey has met its end
In my solitude I shall wait until we meet again my friends
