Voodoo
Action Bronson The Alchemist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I might take a shit and wipe my ass with the a rap check
The Captain because I lead by example
Alone smoking wax in a room full of candles
Haitian lady, polka dot with the needle
Ayo, the bitch kind of resembles Don Cheadle
I'm like a blonde Seagull, twist the rubies in my aunt's regal
Drinking Parmesan, watching Home Alone
Cause they come from out of nowhere, trying to pull your cord
They flee off in a blue-ish Ford, put two in the door
Never ruin the raw
Run in the tunnels from the two or the four-train in broad day
Your silly rabbit rhymes are foreplay
I cop a 50-bag with short change
You can see my mom's reflection in a Sport-Range
Shit, it's voodoo
It's voodoo
It started raining out of nowhere
I let the flare off, it almost burned my fucking hair off
Science forbid, Jamaican girls be eyeing the kid
She weighed 275, should could've played the d-line
For the Bengals, we danced the Tango-Tango
I sing a jingle, now the beamer slammed like Kurt Angle
Curse out the window at a cunt that tried to cut me off
I hit her window with a fried rice and duck sauce
It's voodoo, you're doodoo
Stash the acid in the asshole of a German Poodle
Uh, sacrifice the motherfucking chicken
It's voodoo
So what I'm saying is the armored truck arrives about 7 sharp
Wear the dress and wear the wig
Light one cig then wait for my instructions
If you listen, we'll be skating through customs eating muffins
Tropical discussion, you can see your reflection up in my Duncans, shit I go nuts
And I'm not fat, I'm only robust
Crash the jeep into your crib until it blows up
Uh, till it blows up
Crash the jeep into your crib until it blows up
Motherfucker, till it blows up
It's voodoo
In these lyrics, Action Bronson speaks about his preference to rely on himself rather than follow any religion. He compares himself to a religious symbol that can be worn on someone's necklace to indicate their faith. The following line, "I might take a shit and wipe my ass with a rap check" is a metaphorical way of saying that he does not place value in societal expectations or norms, and he may do things that are seen as unconventional. He also gives himself the nickname "The Captain", as he leads by example and is self-sufficient.
In the second verse, he describes a Haitian lady who is tattooed with polka dots and has a resemblance to Don Cheadle. He then compares himself to a "blonde Seagull" while twisting rubies in his aunt's car (regal). The chorus, which repeats "It's voodoo," emphasizes the idea that Action Bronson's way of living and thinking is unconventional and unorthodox.
Overall, the lyrics convey Action Bronson's preference to follow his own path rather than fitting into societal norms and expectations. He emphasizes his individualism and disregard for religious doctrines, and highlights his preference for unorthodox behavior.

I am my own belief system that you can wear as a symbol of yours
I might take a shit and wipe my ass with the a rap check
I don't value money from my music, it's fleeting

Drinking Parmesan, watching Home Alone
I enjoy the little pleasures in life like sipping on cheese and watching a classic movie
Even when I'm home alone, I always hold the chrome
I am always armed, even when I'm alone
Cause they come from out of nowhere, trying to pull your cord
People can ambush you unexpectedly
They flee off in a blue-ish Ford, put two in the door
The assailants escape in a blueish car after shooting the door twice
Never ruin the raw
Don't mess with the original or natural state of things
Run in the tunnels from the two or the four-train in broad day
Run for cover in the train tunnels to avoid getting caught during the day

Your rhymes don't hold up and are like foreplay
I cop a 50-bag with short change
I got a small amount of weed with less money than expected
You can see my mom's reflection in a Sport-Range
My car is so shiny you can see my mother's reflection in it
Shit, it's voodoo
There's something supernatural or mysterious happening
It started raining out of nowhere
Rain came unexpectedly
I let the flare off, it almost burned my fucking hair off
I let off a flare, but it almost burned my hair in the process
Science forbid, Jamaican girls be eyeing the kid
I catch the eye of Jamaican girls, for good or bad
She weighed 275, should could've played the d-line
The Jamaican girl was large, like a football lineman
For the Bengals, we danced the Tango-Tango
We danced the tango, like they do in football when a team scores
I sing a jingle, now the beamer slammed like Kurt Angle
I sing a tune and now my car is speeding fast like Kurt Angle
Curse out the window at a cunt that tried to cut me off
I curse at a woman who tries to cut me off in traffic
I hit her window with a fried rice and duck sauce
I throw Chinese food at her window in frustration
It's voodoo, you're doodoo
There's something supernatural or mysterious happening and you are not impressive
Stash the acid in the asshole of a German Poodle
Hide drugs in the anus of a small dog breed
Uh, sacrifice the motherfucking chicken
Perform a ritual sacrifice of a chicken
So what I'm saying is the armored truck arrives about 7 sharp
What I'm describing is when an armored truck arrives
Wear the dress and wear the wig
Dress up in disguise
Light one cig then wait for my instructions
Smoke a cigarette and wait for further directions
If you listen, we'll be skating through customs eating muffins
If you follow me, we can pass through customs easily while eating muffins
Tropical discussion, you can see your reflection up in my Duncans, shit I go nuts
We talk about tropical things and my shoes are so shiny you can see your reflection in them
And I'm not fat, I'm only robust
I am not overweight, just well-built
Crash the jeep into your crib until it blows up
Drive a jeep into your house and cause it to explode
Motherfucker, till it blows up
Until the point of explosion
It's voodoo
There's something supernatural or mysterious happening
