Wiki
The basis of the song is the connection we have with loved ones who have departed from this world, and who live on in our hearts and in the “other side” (Heaven) and as this was from the soundtrack album of Lion King, the song references Mufasa’s reassurance to young Simba that the great kings that preceded them live on as stars in the sky. This is emphasized in Beyoncé’s outro, sang in the Swahili language "Mababu Katika Mawingu" meaning Ancestors among the clouds.
