Try this

local debounce = false

while wait() do
    if deboune == false then
        debounce = true
        if script.Parent.Text == "5" then

             game.ReplicatedStorage.NextLevelEvent:FireServer()
             print("server fired")

            wait(3) -- The amount of time until it fires again
            debounce = false
        end
    end
end

That would error, you are firing it too many times Omq_ItzJasmin 666 — 3y

I'm sure this should work, what it does is whenever the text is changed, it will check if the text is "5" and if it's 5 then it will fire the event.

script.Parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Text"):Connect(function() -- when text is changed
    if script.Parent.Text == "5" then

        game.ReplicatedStorage.NextLevelEvent:FireServer()
        print("server fired")
    end
end)
