Jhameel was once set on the path to officer-ship in the United States Army. Although his linguistic skills in Arabic, Spanish, Korean, and Russian would have been highly rewarded in the military, Jhameel quit the program before signing an irrevocable contract due to personal beliefs about U.S. presence in the Middle East. He then earned a degree in Arabic from UC Berkeley within just two years, graduating summa cum laude. Immediately after, he began his career in music.
Jhameel creates explosively funky music comprised of soul-stirring guitar, immersive synthesizers, triumphant brass, and athletic, melodic vocals inspired equally by Prince and Michael Jackson. He plays each and every instrument on his records himself, creating catchy melodies that settle easily into your mind with human lyrical themes that continue to challenge the heart. Jhameel’s skills extend to the mixing board too, as he produces his own music.
Jhameel’s second album, The Human Condition, sparked interest with thousands of music fans, propelling tracks “Bernal Heights” and “The Human Condition” to the top of the Hype Machine Popular Charts. He followed up with the Dance EP, which featured the furiously energetic “Shut Up”, a track that not only took over the Hype Machine charts once more, but became Forever 21’s flagship song for the fall of 2011.
Waves
Jhameel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It won't be long 'till the world is ours
And soon we will no longer be young
Ashamed to have lost and won
And soon it will be just like it never was
Is there no tomorrow for us
Is there life or death or nothing at all
Everything goes away
Everything goes in waves
Come tomorrow, here today
Everybody hesitates
Happy face, Sad face
Everybody loves and hates, I just say it goes in waves
It won't be long
It won't be long 'till the morning comes
And soon we will be laughing at us
A shame that we don't have much
And soon it will be just like it never was
Is there no tomorrow for us
Is there life or death or nothing at all
Everything goes away
Comes again anyway
Everything goes in waves
Come tomorrow, here today
Everybody hesitates
Happy face, Sad face
Everybody loves and hates
I just say it goes in waves
Is there no tomorrow for us
Is there life or death or nothing at all
Everything goes away
Comes again anyway
Everything goes in waves
Come tomorrow, here today
Everybody hesitates
Happy face, Sad face
Everybody loves and hates
I just say it goes in waves
The lyrics of Jhameel's song "Waves" explore the cyclical nature of life and its various emotions. The song opens with the idea that our time on earth is limited and that soon the world will belong to us. However, we won't have much to show for it and will feel ashamed of our triumphs and losses. As time passes, everything will change and life will be just like it never was. The singer wonders about what tomorrow holds for us and whether there is a purpose to life beyond just living and dying.
The chorus of the song states that everything goes in waves, implying that life is circular and that everything that goes away comes back again. This is a statement about the impermanence of everything, including emotions that are represented by happy and sad faces. The song suggests that everyone loves and hates at some point in their life, and that we should embrace the changes that come with it, as it is all part of the natural cycle.
In conclusion, "Waves" is about the temporary nature of life and how everything goes in cycles. The song encourages us to recognize the changes that occur in our lives and to embrace them, as this is what makes life unpredictable and exciting.

Eloise
Waves (한글가사)
얼마 남지 않았어
이 세상의 끝까지 얼마 남지 않았어
우리의 젊음도 오래가지 않아
이기고 지는 것도 다 애석한 걸
곧 모두 없었던 일처럼 되어버릴 테니
우리에게 내일은 없는 걸까
삶 혹은 죽음 아니면 아무것도 없는 걸까
모든 것은 사라지고
어찌 됐든 다시 돌아오고
모든 것은 파도처럼
오늘 역시 내일이면 사라져
모두 그렇게 지내지
행복한 얼굴, 슬픈 얼굴 하면서
다들 사랑하고 미워하고
그저 파도처럼 그렇게
얼마 남지 않았어
머지않아 아침이 올 거야
곧 우리의 모습을 보며 웃겠지
얼마 남지 않아 애석한 걸
곧 모두 없었던 것이 되어버릴 테니
