A Fugitive On the Run

I robbed a bank today 
Suprisingly
 I got away
The cops were just seconds behind
The money so much money
is mine
I cant believe
I pulled it off
Just a hoodie, bandana,
and a plastic gun airsoft
I told that teller 
give it all to me
So scared 
so frightened was she
put in the bag 
stuff it nice and full
or I will be forced
to give this trigger a pull
Everyone stand down 
not a single noise
I pulled it off
with stellar poise
As I left 
I had goosebumps up my spine
I finished it like the movies
in record time
I got away I made it 
no repercussion in sight
Until I was alone
that very same night
Couldn't stay out of the windows in my home
They showed my photo on the news
(I must be known)
What did I do
there is no turning back
Need to stuff this money
into my pack
Stuck constantly 
looking over my shoulder
Life as I knew it
is completely over
Going to hit the road
see what I can find
The worry the guilt 
racing through my mind
I thought I was successful
but the aftermath isn't fun
Wait this means 
I am a FUGITIVE on the run
