Can’t play purchased music

I bought several songs through iTunes but when I try to play them I instead get Apples obnoxious pop up for their worthless subscription music ripoff. I own the song. Why can’t I play it?

iPhone 8, iOS 13

Siri subscribed me to Apple Music on her own Hey, I was asking Siri for an artist from my library the other day. She played a song from the artist I didn’t know. After some trails, I realized she just subscribed to Apple Music instead of going through my media library. How do I get off Apple Music altogether? I have iTunes Match and I buy CDs and individual files. That’s how I like my music.

Some songs not downloading in lossless quality in Apple Music for iPhone I just noticed that some of the songs that I downloaded in my library aren't downloaded in lossless quality even though I have lossless downloads turned on. When I erase these songs from my library and stream them using internet they play in lossless quality, and the difference when listening to them is pretty noticeable. I've tried downloading these songs again after deleting them and being able to stream them with lossless audio, but they downloaded in bad quality again. Why is this happening? (In the first picture, a downloaded song, the lossless badge is missing. In the second pictured, the same song being streamed with wi-fi, showing the lossless badge)
