Hi there, DJ1802!
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you have an issue with some of your music being greyed out in iTunes and I am happy to help! I suggest taking a look at this article with steps to follow to Get help with iCloud Music Library. Specifically, take a look at this section here:
If some of your songs are missing or the song names appear in gray text
If songs that you bought are missing or the song names appear in gray text, they might use digital rights management (DRM). You need to authorize your computer before you can play these songs.
After you authorize, choose File > Library > Update iCloud Music Library from the menu bar at the top of your computer screen or the top of the iTunes window.
If you synced the songs that appear with gray text to your iOS device from a Mac or PC, turn on iCloud Music Library on that computer and your library should update.
This article will also provide you the next steps to take if the issue continue.
Have a great day!
