Harassment (/həˈræsmənt/ or /ˈhærəsmənt/) covers a wide range of behaviours of an offensive nature. It is commonly understood as behaviour which disturbs or upsets, and it is characteristically repetitive. In the legal sense, it is behaviour which appears to be threatening or disturbing. Sexual harassment refers to persistent and unwanted sexual advances, typically in the workplace, where the consequences of refusing are potentially very disadvantageous to the victim.
The word is based in English since circa 1618 as loan word from the French harassement, which was in turn already attested in 1572 meaning torment, annoyance, bother, trouble and later as of 1609 was also referred to the condition of being exhausted, overtired. Of the French verb harasser itself there are the first records in a Latin to French translation of 1527 of Thucydides’ History of the war that was between the Peloponnesians and the Athenians both in the countries of the Greeks and the Romans and the neighbouring places where the translator writes harasser allegedly meaning harceler (to exhaust the enemy by repeated raids); and in the military chant Chanson du franc archer of 1562, where the term is referred to a gaunt jument (de poil fauveau, tant maigre et harassée: of fawn horsehair, so meagre and …) where it is supposed that the verb is used meaning overtired.

Harassment is the mark of the beast in the struggle
In the hands of the enemy the middle of the hastle
But blessed I'm bound to be
If I bear our the battle
If I give dem the power they bring back the shackles
So I got to overthrow the struggle.
Captured by command of corrupted law
Not to be released till they beat I raw
Trumped a charge on I
I've got no alibi
No leg to stand in court says I need you support
I say
We'll fight 'till last
Roots Roots
Three nines nine nine nine
The mark of the beast yeh
Vonk dem harassment
Got to overthrow the struggle
We'll fight till last
