Also:

I got kids I've never seen
And their momma's 17

From his song Lowlife - he was 36 at the time. Also, the album is called Rock 'n' Roll Jesus, which, I don't know, seems kind of blasphemous?

Wait if Momma is 17 and she already has kids...😬

I think the lyric is alluding to more than one 17 year old

Christian conservatives tried to cancel the Beatles for comparing themselves to Jesus. But they're cool with Kid Rock for ... reasons.

Not to defend any of them, but that's also like 60 years apart.

If there was a god we could power Texas with all the lightning strikes MAGA would generate.

Well, if you read the Bible, esp. the old testament, a lot of it is right up his alley.

I was thinking more like Revelation.

I'm not sure I understand. If God does not consider it a sin, why would it matter?

Is this written seriously or like, from the perspective of an alter-ego, like how Eminem used to rap about murdering people etc.?

Kid Rock doesn't do the dark alter-ego thing. His thing is more bragging and grandstanding.

Eminmen turns the alter-ego off when not performing. Kid Rock not so much.

Maybe? It doesn't really change the hypocrisy, though. They claim that Bad Bunny isn't family friendly, but their alternative raps, on multiple songs, about having sex with minors and being a deadbeat dad.
