Missing ITunes Music

After upgrading my IPhone a few times, I seem to be missing a lot of my music, and I was wondering how to get it back or is it gone for good?

iPhone SE, 13

For missing purchases see Hide and unhide music, movies, TV shows, audiobooks, and books - Apple Support and Redownload apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books from the App Store, iTunes Store, and Apple Books - Apple Support.


In general all your media should be in an iTunes library that you keep backed up. You can choose what you sync to your device. If you no longer have copies of ripped media, and it isn't on your device or any backup, then you'll have to rip it again.
