Presumably you refer to the native Music App - and music that you have downloaded from Apple Music or synchronised from your Mac computer or Windows PC to your iPad.


Due to DRM constraints, the native iOS/iPadOS Music App does not support export of music from the Music App.


There are however, third-party Mac or Windows PC applications that facilitate export. You should be able to find a suitable App using your favourite search engine.
