You Can't Be Told
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Won’t you ride, and you can’t be told now
You can’t be told now, you can’t be told
Won’t you ride, and you can’t be told now
You can’t be told now, you can’t be told
Spent his whole life running
Trying to make it tomorrow
Seems like he was lonely
But he makes it stop
See hoe he see where it bends
Same destination, 6 feet in the ground
He go back like the sound
You can’t be told, you can’t be told
He go back like the sound
You can’t be told, you can’t be told
I ain’t trying to be nobody
But my past is here
I ain’t like you every’s around
And I have nothing less
Yeah I gotta break the law
Break you free from these chains
I did some things, when that judge call my name
You start running, every day every night
You wanna ride
You start running, every day every night
You wanna ride
Won’t you ride, and you can’t be told now
You can’t be told now, you can’t be told
Won’t you ride, and you can’t be told now
You can’t be told now, you can’t be told
