If the universe grants me peace, and when it finally does
I guess I'll know the truth of it, the lessons from what was.

If my body grants me health, and when maybe it finally will,
I'll try my best to keep it up, to keep from feeling ill.

If this Earth should grant me love, and when it finally comes
I hope I'll keep my wits this time, and relish in what it becomes

And if this life should grant me time, and when it finally ends
Just know that I've enjoyed myself, my family and my friends.
