Apple Music has embargoed my files

Apple Music won't let me play my files unless I subscribe to Apple Music. I was not paying a fee to iTunes. I have in excess of 30k songs, ll of which I own by virtue of having purchased the songs, purchased physical CDs and ripped them to iTunes or as gifts. Unless I subscribe to Apple Music, I only can access about 10% or fewer of the files. How can I work around this?
