[Verse 1]
The media's controlling the masses
Stoking our anger and fear
Further dividing the classes
Serving the richest careers
[Chorus 1]
Their mantra is lies and deception
When honesty's all that I crave
I decline and there'll be no exceptions
I am no one's master
No one's slave
No one's slave
[Verse 2]
Living in fear ain't worth living
Wasting your life is the crime
The reaper will be unforgiving
Wake up, while you're still in your prime
[Chorus 2]
The guide of my life is my conscience
My way is the path that I pave
I treat, how I want to be treated
I am no one's master
No one's slave
No one's slave
[Bridge]
I won't rule
I won't bow
I won't sink my eyes to the ground
I won't steal
I won't kneel
I won't bend my knee to the crowned
I pledge an oath to myself and to life
I'm not afraid of the sword or the knife
[Chorus 2]
The guide of my life is my conscience
My way is the path that I pave
Equality's all that I'm after
I am no one's master
No one's slave
No one's slave
No one's master
I am no one's
No one's slave

It was his idea, which is great. I think it’s talking about the fact that you want to treat everybody like you want to be...
