This transcription was made by Azizi Powell from the video.
The soloist’s and choir’s words often overlap each other.
The interjections and other words that I put in brackets are probably optional. A question mark in brackets means that I'm not sure about my transcription.
Corrections & additions, and information about the composer of this song and the Cosmos Warriors are very welcome.
