Why does this play for 5 seconds then play a new song?
This should select an id from the table and play it (other part in a local script), but instead the song plays for like ~5 seconds and then another song is played, and it keeps repeating itself.
It never waits for an actual song to finish before playing a new one.

07 | local randomSong = songs[math.random(1, #songs)] |

09 | wait(0.5) |
10 | remotes.Events.PlaySong:FireAllClients(randomSong) -- add in params |
11 | wait(4) |
12 | debounce = false |

Get the length of the song (TimeLengh property) and put a wait() after the song is told to be played. The song should play fully.

Why it plays for 4 seconds, or 5, as you say, is because your debounce is set to 4. Meaning, after 4 seconds your script will re-loop and play a new song. Try to pick songs that are full length, which is 2 minutes, converted to 120 seconds. So for your wait, put wait(120), and it should work properly. This should be your final code:
01 | work.SoundBrick.Sound.Ended:connect(function() |
02 | if not debounce then |
03 | debounce = true |
04 | -- added to debug |
05 | work.SoundBrick.Sound:Stop() |

07 | local randomSong = songs[math.random(1, #songs)] |
08 | print(randomSong) |
09 | wait(0.5) |
10 | remotes.Events.PlaySong:FireAllClients(randomSong) -- add in params |
11 | wait(119.5) -- i did 199.5 because you have a .5 above this wait so this would make it exactly 120 seconds, which is 2 minutes, a full length roblox audio |
12 | debounce = false |
13 | end |
14 | end) |
