Licks And Kicks

I'm sure it was the 24th (of September)
That was a day this incident happen (I remember)
My brethrens were all assembled in one accord (ina the yard)
Minding their own personality (of equality)
Babylon then came along (maliciously) with the forces of brutality

Licks and kicks and boxes
Right to my brethren's jaw back
Licks and kicks and boxes
Right to my sister's faces

Oh Jah, I know you stay where you are and see
What they did, that was meant to be
For it is the fulfilment of the holy prophecy

Oh Jah, I know you stay where you are and see
What they did that was meant to be
For it is the fulfilment of the holy prophecy

To everything (there is a season)
And what they did they had no reason
We are they that went through great tribulations
So, let them be brought to shame and confusion
For what they did without a cause (licks and kicks and boxes)
On the 24th night of September 1976 (licks and kicks and boxes)
Wicked men of no reason, without no reason, no (licks and kicks and boxes)
They eat us with boxing
They took us away to a place called (licks and kicks and boxes)
