David Pray Fo God Help Him 
(1 Samuel 22:1-2) 
One poem from David, how he pray wen he hide inside da cave. 
 1 I yell fo Da One In Charge help me. 
I talk loud wen I pray 
To Da One In Charge 
Fo give me chance. 
 2 I tell him bout my problem, 
Jalike I pour eryting in front him. 
I make shua he know 
Wat stay bodda me. 
 3 Wen I come weak inside, 
Still yet, you da one dat know 
Da way fo me go. 
Cuz wea I walk, 
Az jalike peopo hide traps dea. 
 4 Try look aroun me fo see 
No mo nobody kea fo help me! 
Da place fo go wea nobody can hurt me, 
Gone awready! 
Nobody kea if I alive o mahke! 
 5 I yell fo you fo help me, 
Da One In Charge. 
I tell, “You, da one take kea me 
Fo nobody hurt me. 
I get ony you, 
All da time I live inside dis world!” 
 6 Try lissen wen I yell fo you help me, 
Cuz I stay all jam up! 
Get me outa trouble from da peopo 
Dat chase afta me, 
Cuz dey mo strong den me. 
 7 Jalike I all lock up, 
So get me out! 
Den I goin tell good tings bout you 
Cuz I know wat kine god you. 
I like fo all da peopo 
Dat stay do wass right 
Come by me too, 
Cuz you goin do good tings fo me.
