[Verse] Leatherface grin, barbecue at the pit, Kids with fake chainsaws, backyard misfit. Freddy in the dreams, nightmares stitched, Candy corn teeth, yeah, sugar got ‘em twitched. Parents blame the screen, blame the VHS, But we sharpened our wit, horror gave us finesse. [Chorus] Raised by the killers on the screen, Ghostface taught us how to scheme. Michael in the shadows, moving unseen, They say we’re twisted—just chasing the dream. [Verse 2] Camp Crystal Lake, made us crafty at night, Built forts from the fear, found strength in the fright. Norman in the motel, creepy delight, Psycho in the mirror, a reflection of plight. But Chucky got jokes, taught us to laugh, Blade in his hand, yeah, we studied the craft. [Bridge] Chains clank, in the basement it’s doom, Every kid learned tension in the glow of the room. Popcorn in the air, flicker lights in the gloom, Screen time shaped us, monsters in bloom. [Chorus] Raised by the killers on the screen, Ghostface taught us how to scheme. Michael in the shadows, moving unseen, They say we’re twisted—just chasing the dream. [Outro] VHS rewind, static in the spine, Childhood fears turned legends in rhyme. They call us deranged, but here’s the truth defined, Horror raised the kids—now the world's out of time.
