"That the human mind will ever give up metaphysical researches is as little to be expected as that we should prefer to give up breathing altogether, to avoid inhaling impure air. There will therefore always be metaphysics in the world; nay, every one, especially every man of reflection, will have it, and for want of a recognized standard, will shape it for himself after his own pattern."
What Kant is saying is that metaphysical research is that people will use for the rest of the history, metaphysics is our history our trace of identity to find out who we are as a people. Metaphysics refers to beings, how beings act, and their culture. In addition to what Kant says is that man will always look at metaphysics, the ontology, and cosmology, and refer it to their history.
