A friend of mine sent this, I personally thought it was hilarious. But having a Communications Disorder background I tend to have a different view on Ebonics. Still it's funny.

The "Our Father" in Ebonics

EBONICS	ENGLISH
Big Daddy's Rap	The Lord's Prayer
Yo, Bid Daddy upstairs,	Our Father, who art in heaven
You be chillin	Hallowed be thy name
So be yo hood	Thy Kingdom come
You be sayin' it, I be doin' it	Thy will be done
In this here hood and yo's	On earth as it is in heaven
Gimme some eats	Give us this day our daily bread
And cut me some slack, Blood	And forgive us our trespasses
Sos I be doin' it to dem dat diss me	As we forgive those who trespasses against us
don't be pushing me into no jive	And lead us not into temptation
and keep dem Crips away	But deliver us from evil
'Cause you always be da Man	For thine is the Kingdom, the power
Aaa-men	Amen
