Lost library with HDD death

The drive I had my music library stored to has died and recovery is prohibitively expensive. However, my entire library is loaded to my phone, though too big to back up to basic iCloud. Is there any way to retrieve my library from my phone (13 ProMax). I’m on a Windows PC using iTunes to manage my library.
If I have to redownload CDs and restore purchases, it’ll be tedious, but I can do it. I’m aware of other methods of acquiring music if it’s something corrupted or hard to find. But since I know the music is ON my phone, shouldn’t I be able to download it from my phone—even if through a third-party program?
Any help/suggestions appreciated!
