Can I reactivate a deactivated Apple Music free trial without paying?

I had the free trial of Apple Music. I cancelled it just a couple days after signing up, because I can never remember to cancel before the renewal date. I assumed it was like any other free trial, and would be active until the that date. It was not. It deactivated immediately. Is there a way to reactivate it without paying for it?

Here are the conditions for a current Apple Music free trial offer:

One of the terms (emphasis mine):


"Upon claiming the offer, you agree to a $11.99/month subscription that starts immediately after the free offer period and automatically renews until cancelled. You can cancel at any time in Settings at least one day before each renewal date. If you cancel during your free offer period, you will immediately lose access to Apple Music and the remainder of your free trial. You can’t reactivate this trial."
