Lead a Horse to Water

You can drop the reins and loosen your grip
Or you can kick your spurs and crack the whip
Some try whispering, some try force
But no one can steer the spirit of a horse
You can lead a horse to water, but ya can’t make him drink
You can tell him all your thoughts, but you can’t tell him what to think
You can stare him down, but you can’t make him blink
You can lead a horse to water, but ya can’t make him drink.
