THE SUN

The Cards I Play

Searching for the Sun now

Im hearing sounds from a million voices

With a hundred different reasons telling me who to be so I

Tried to fake it just to feel aligned tonight

A disguise to justify

知らないmyselfを演じ、来た

So I’ll hide the sunlight with covered eyes

Tried to speak, the words won’t fit

Now I’m nothing but 自分以外の存在

I’m in loss of my vision自分で決めた地図もgone and 癒えぬ傷になってstays inside

I’ll get up to say他所は他所、

型に嵌められた意思imma get back

And I’ve been singing for the sun, it’s burning

Lost through waves of time

And I’ve been searching for the sun in places

Only I could find

Don’t wanna break down

Nothing ever is what it seems

I’ve been decoding all the emptiness I’ve felt in between

And so I breathe in, breathe out

Search beneath

As I walk the tightrope, and regain control

Don’t wanna fall now

Why’d I feel so incomplete?

Searching for pieces that were never even out of my reach

Just wanna say “how?”

Somehow I failed to see I was lost

Yeah unfold to revive myself tonight

And I’ve been singing for the sun, it’s burning

Lost through waves of time

And I’ve been searching for the sun in places

Only I could find

Back then, yeah I lost my sight but now

Living like myself, ain’t nobody gon’ tell me how

They say keep it up, get hammered down

Push me to edge, now I’m stuntin’ from the front to the back

You won’t make a sound

Uh I’m coming back around

Picked up all the broken pieces, and I found my resistance, searched from beneath like

And I’ve been singing for the sun, it’s burning

Lost through waves of time

And I’ve been searching for the sun in places

Only I could find

Artist Profile

  • The Cards I Play

    The Cards I Play is an alternative nu-metal band hailing from Tokyo, Japan. Since their formation in 2019, they have been carving out a distinct presence in Japan's heavy music scene, rapidly building momentum with their explosive sound and raw energy. Fusing the intensity of metalcore, the grit of nu-metal, and the attitude of hip hop, the band delivers a genre-bending sound that feels both cutting-edge and unmistakably their own - bold, unfiltered, and fiercely dynamic. 2024 marked a breakthrough year: they headlined their first-ever solo show and completed a nationwide headline tour, proving their draw as a live act. They also lit up the stage as the opening act at SiM's 'DEAD POP FESTiVAL' and joined UK heavyweights WHILE SHE SLEEPS as the guest act for their entire Japan tour. With buzz continuing to build, The Cards I Play are now gearing up for their biggest chapter yet - the release of their highly anticipated second full-length album later this year, followed by their first full-scale solo headline tour across Japan
