Spotify only gives access to songs and podcasts on its own, and we are not allowed to export the music out of the app. 

The good news is that in May 2018, Spotify added the function to share music to Instagram. And in September 2019, it allowed users to share Spotify music to Facebook stories. But it only gives a name tag of the music. You can click the tag and enter the Spotify app to listen to songs. 

While sharing a single track, a 15-second preview will be played before entering Spotify. This means you can listen to part of the music on the Facebook stories, and then you need to go to Spotify for the whole piece.
