60 Hours Verse 1 Wake up, wake up, I gotta go to work I'm jumping' in the car while im puttin on my shirt No collar on it, music on, so cover me And I ain't Comin' out until everybody is lovely I'm too focused, like Em on Recovery Minus the fame, with a Lil more shrubbery My workplace, I been living in there Pinstripe suit, so I can fit in with the squares I need a reason to believe, baby this is it Day job was cool, but it will never get me rich That get big quick scene has gone hit or miss So I should go after my masters or get a bitch, right? Yeah right, you got me twisted like licorice Ima swing harder, even if you got a bigger fist I fell a lot along the way, so what Stop me, no luck I'm hooked, tow truck Bridge 1 Frustrations mounting, so I think it's bout to blow They call me Mr J Burns, you already know It's been 5 years and counting, and Fans keep on shouting Waitin for that beat to drop So grab that mic and rock, just let it rock! Verse 2 Let it rock, electric guitar Crowd chanting "where the heck is a star?" So the hecklers are, actin up, King, get a deck of these cards An effortless par smoke, throw the rest in the jar Hit the stage, everybody anticipatin Been some hatin, ladies pushing just to get to Jason I gotta work in the morning so I say listen Satan I ain't givin in, I'm rockin and I ain't missin nathan Hit the brakes when, Im lookin for all eyes Grown women, young kids. even tall guys Short ladies, fat husbands, small wives No limit on what I'm doin, just tall skies... Ahh Caps on, suits off No clockin' in, take your dress shows off You out your mind if you think I can't beat em, meet em, all I need is, 60 hours of freedom Bridge 2 To all my fans Im sorry, I promised I missed you too I don't know why it took me so long just to get to you but You've been patiently waiting, watching for what I will do So I'm here, all in, no leavin' All I needed was, 60 hours of freedom...

What Am I 03:09
What Am I (Hook) What Am I supposed to do, when I feel like I'm running out of time and the clocks tickin down on me? Got a wife and a daughter and a full time job, and everybody's counting on me Got no seconds for no games, people lookin at me strange, so at night Ima walk these streets Aint a damn thing changed, ima still remain the same, Til they bury me, and rest in peace (Verse 1) Business is good, it could be better love where im sittin', but damn nothins forever I, promised my family that we would do this together I wanted to be the leader but woke up as the professor now.. I'm here to teach, thats why I broke in this hook, and this life here it ain't as dope as it looks, See there was, murder and mayhem dope and there's crook, and these are the lessons im layin out im hopin you took a couple of em, so just open ya book, and pick u a verse Cuz even the best, they go through issues at first, I'm different it hurts, this hip hop is a gift and a curse, they see my trail as im shiftin from first, im pickin up speed, not hittin reverse move out the way or go get u a nurse, set up a funeral and pick u a hearse (homie) my bloods boiling' 110.. And I'm in the back gettin blunted again so tell me tell me tell me! (Hook) What Am I supposed to do, when I feel like I'm running out of time and the clocks tickin down on me? Got a wife and a daughter and a full time job, and everybody's counting on me Got no seconds for no games, people lookin at me strange, so at night Ima walk these streets Aint a damn thing changed, ima still remain the same, Til they bury me, and rest in peace (Verse 2) Feel like I gave you everything that I had to, now I gotta get past you, thats why I passed through a phase where I felt like i was the best on the avenue My attitude was fuck it, I don't care if I'm bashful I can be bad too... Shit, I'll turn to an ass who is, allergic to makin music as simple as hatchoo I am, that dude that be killin these tracks to, keep my focus as bout as permanent as your tattoo, ooh They really want it, they get crushed like a cashew, the kill flow, turn ur shirt the color of Ragu, a mad zoo, outkast, minus the badu, the big boys face, it was turning a tad blue, huh is that true? How long in jail did his dad do? Tryin to be a father now, I think that he's past due Just let the interest grow I heard the wise men once told him damn kid, you got tremendous flow, but dont pretend to know cuz when your eyes widen up and the light hit the blue, it turns to indigo, yeah, and i swear to god I been down since I stopped worrying about the dollars and I found sense Uh, I swear to god I been down since I stopped worrying about the dollars and I found sense.. What am I? Who am I? Where we goin... That's all that matters 60 hours Stand up Portland

about

Portland's most versatile and unknown mcee, J Burns, collaborates with producer, Dupre' Bushnell, to bring the NW its most well rounded debut effort in the last 10 years. With a soundscape of the Big-Band Era from the 40's, a hint of 90's R&B, and the bass from traditional West Coast sounds, J Burns mixes his lyrical versatility to bring a catchy, conscious, and honest Hip Hop album. Much praise also goes out to the two featured producers on 60 Hours of Freedom, SHK THT along with The Saint, contributed to the flowing masterpiece.

In a town that wont let you be as known as its biggest mcee, an artist out of South East Portland is taking a stand. For his name, for his craft, and for his family. J Burns is the type of hip hop artist who constantly pushes himself and those around him to create and innovate. Over the past 8 years, he’s mastered his lyrical versatility with the drive to succeed not only for himself, but for his family and those closest to him.

Check out and enjoy, 60 Hours of Freedom
