I dont want this present

The future isnt as dark as it seems
Lost in the present 
kuz we still holdin on to the past's fckd up presents! 
every scar wrapped tight w a bow 
 triple knotted with a thousand layers 
keepin safe every tragic memory we know 
tired from the circles we stay runnin 
moving so fast but feelin like super slow-mo
 been way past the time to go 
years fly by n still got nothin to show 
 with the heaviest baggage we've ever known in tow 
Pains in our legs from tryna grow
Starting to feel like this just how sht supposed to go
