about

A particularly prescient song given recent events, “Cinnamon” was initially inspired by the ongoing treatment of asylum seekers at the US-Mexico border. Sung through a distorted megaphone, CAMINA’s haunting vocals blend together lyrical elements of African-American spirituals (“Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen”), the rallying cry of grassroots activism (“Si se puede” or “Yes we can”), and feelings of helplessness for the future (“We will rise above, but the damage is done”). A marimba-infused trip hop beat introduces the album’s Latin musical influences.

lyrics

Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
We will rise above, but the damage is done
Darkness in the night the time is right
We will rise above, but the damage is done
All that is lost cannot be saved
We will rise above, but the damage is done
Si se puede, Aye Aye Aye
