Hello CPRDFR,


We understand you would like to get the music on your phone over to your Mac and we're happy to help. First, are you an Apple Music subscriber? If so, then these steps here: Turn on Sync Library with Apple Music will assist you with keeping your music up to date on all devices.


If you are not a subscriber, then you can access purchased songs from iTunes in your purchased history on the Mac using the steps here: Redownload apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books


If the music is third party music, then you will have to have the music on the Mac to listen to it there. You're unable to import music from an iPhone using your Mac.


Take care!
