Summary
- Kid Rock added a faith-based verse to Johnson's hit song.

Cody Johnson's chart-topping song, "'Til You Can't," known for its inspirational message, received a significant twist when Kid Rock introduced a new, faith-centric verse. This updated version achieved remarkable success, marking Kid Rock's first song to reach the pinnacle of Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart.

Following the concert performance, Kid Rock sought Johnson's explicit permission to officially release his rendition. Johnson consulted with the song's writers and ultimately gave his full endorsement, impressed by Kid Rock's respect for the original work and his desire to incorporate a spiritual element. He described the conversation as deeply moving, particularly Kid Rock's explanation of adding a divine perspective to the song's core message.
