Can't figure out the song in my head

Ok, so it's just a line from a song that has been stuck there before. It was a rap song from the late 80's/early 90's, and the line is "Voodoo, runnin from my magic." A sample was used in a few other songs, but I can't find them to see if the album had a reference.

Please help meeeeeee

No, it was long before ICP. It was also in Da Lench Mob's song Guerillas in tha Mist...well the sample from the song I am looking for is in that one at least.

I think I remember those lyrics from a song way back when Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 came out for PS1. Hope that helps.

[Brother J]
I was sittin by the river with my warrior's gun
A bunch of caveboys tried to house my drum
I never bust a sweat because it's not at all tragic
VOO-DOO, runnin from my magic!
I came across the sand on my faith alone
Eatin cooked meat while you gnaw at the bone
Sittin by the fire while you froze in cave
A bunch of silly thieves with the nerve to say you're brave
I think you're cowards; fightin systematically and chemically
connivin
Cause you never liked us but it seems you're always trying
Try to say we're dumb but it seems you're always thriving
from the science.. so now I bear you
Sit, heed the words and raise the flag to prepare you
for the coming of the ones who never fear you
Don't you know a brother like myself will only dare you
to act foolish? We have come
Child of the sandbox, follow through the drum
We have come from with the mathematic sum
Now you wanna ask what's the dum-diddy-dum? The X, Shalom

I used to love X Clan.

It's funny because I was like a 13 year old, middle class white kid, and half their songs are about the white devil.
