"Elitist Ones" lyrics - WHITECHAPEL

WHITECHAPEL
"Elitist Ones"

It took a long time to realize and admit
That our words don't mean a thing
So keep talking your shit
How can we honestly live in fear
When everyone will die in a hundred years?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Respect, trust, and loyalty
I've gave it out and I've taken it too
But what's the point when everyone
Will secretly think they're better than you?

[Chorus:]
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones

[Post-Chorus:]
(This is what we have become)

I've seen it all there's nothing I haven't heard
Just stay at home and remain a coward
And swallow down that salt in your mouth
Because nobody gives a fuck what comes out

[Pre-Chorus:]
Respect, trust, and loyalty
I've gave it out and I've taken it too
But what's the point when everyone
Will secretly think they're better than you?

[Chorus:]
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones

[Bridge:]
One day we'll all regret, the things we've said
From here on out don't open your mouth
Show some fucking respect!

[Breakdown:]
Show some fucking respect
Karma will come for your neck
I've run out of patience, for so-called "elitists"
Show some fucking respect
Karma will come for your neck
I've run out of patience, for so-called "elitists"

[Pre-Chorus:]
Respect, trust, and loyalty
I've gave it out and I've taken it too
But what's the point when everyone
Will secretly think they're better than you?

[Chorus:]
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones
This is what we have become
A self-absorbed population of scum
The vision of the future is like staring at the sun
God damn (God damn) the elitist ones

[Outro:]
(This is what we have become)
(God damn the elitist ones)
(This is what we have become)
(God damn the elitist ones)
