If it was purchased 5 years ago, it would be unprotected. Delete your copy and download a fresh copy per these steps:

Redownload apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books - Apple Support


If you still need an MP3, follow these steps carefully:

Convert a song to a different file format with the Apple Music app or iTunes for Windows – Apple Support
