"Meet Your Master" is the eleventh track on the 2007 release Year Zero.
Theories
This song could be either from a government perspective, directed to the people, or from a resistance perspective directed to the government (which makes a lot more sense, given the part of the lyrics quoted at AVOTT).
Another theory is that these are the words of, or general feeling given by an encounter with the Presence.

Lyrics
Bow down in position
Against the polished steel
This is something different
You'll like the way this feels
No time for asking questions
No time for wondering
We've heard enough from you now
We've heard everything
We're going to play a new game
You'll put on this blindfold
You'll do what we tell you
You'll do as your told
Used to be the leader
Now comes the time to serve
Maybe we show some mercy
Maybe you get what you deserve
Count down to the end
Gotta make it come faster faster
Right around the bend
Is a coming disaster
Count down to the end
And we're headed there faster
Come on down my friend
It's time to meet your master
You've left quite a mess here
Under your stewardship
You thought you'd figured it out but
You'll learn your place in this
Might take some convincing
For you to see the truth
There are so many things
We've got in store for you
Count down to the end
Gotta make it come faster faster
Right around the bend
Is a coming disaster
Count down to the end
And we're headed there faster faster
Come on down my friend
It's time to meet your master
The following lyric is repeated to the end of the song:
Come on down
