Larry Norman - Shot Down lyrics

I've been shot down, talked about
Some people scandalize my name
But here I am
Talkin' 'bout Jesus just the same

I've been knocked down, kicked around
But like a moth drawn to the flame
Here I am, talkin' 'bout Jesus just the same

I've been rebuked for the things I've said
For the songs I've written and
The life I've led
They say they don't understand me
Well I'm not surprised
Because you can't see nothing when
You close your eyes

They say I'm sinful, backslidden
That I have left to follow fame
But here I am
Talkin' 'bout Jesus just the same

You wanna talk about my life
Hey listen to me
You got your facts all backwards
One two three spreading rumors and gossip is
A real bad game
The only name to spread is Jesus' name

I've been knocked down, kicked around
But like a moth drawn to the flame
Here I am, talkin' 'bout Jesus brother
Here I am, talkin' 'bout Jesus sister
Here I am, talkin' 'bout Jesus just the same
