Legends is a song recorded by Kerli, featured on her third studio album Shadow Works, and released as the third single off the album on February 8, 2019.
Background[]
The track was originally composed in the Utopia sessions as a semi-ballad similar to some of the material on Love Is Dead. It is believed that the song was part of the Weapons of Mass Creation project, Kerli's original second album, which was scrapped in favor of Utopia. The demo leaked on May 26, 2013. The song was then re-recorded with the vocals of Ülenurme Laulustuudio's girls and was included in Shadow Works.[1]

Final version[]
We're the world's new invention
A brand new generation
From your imagination
We're coming, we're coming
With the words that must be spoken
Our hearts cannot be broken
And innocence comes with wisdom
We're coming, we're coming
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're just young, we're just young
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're just young, we're just young
Legends
We're just young, we're just young
We're the world's new creation
An independent nation
Set to be courageous
We're coming, we're coming
With a sound that's so infectious
No choice but to respect us
There's no way you'll neglect us
We're coming, we're coming
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're just young, we're just young
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're already legends
We're just young, we're just young
Legends
We're just young, we're just young
We're just-
We're just young
