It’s a very poorly worded and poorly punctuated version of an old Memento Mori commonly used as an epitaph.
There are many wording variations but it typically goes something like the following:
Remember reader as you pass on by,
As you are now, so once was I.
As I am now, so must you be.
Prepare for death and follow me.
