My world
Is not
Yours to command
My works
Are not
Yours to commend
And I
Am not
One of the President's men.

The author's comments:
I don't really know what this one means. I based the last line and the title on "All the President's Men" the movie. It's kind of about independence and staying out of trouble even if the person causing trouble can bring you higher in the world.
