Parents from a California middle school are understandably upset over a 7th grade teachers Pro Islamic themed song.
The teacher used the melody of the song “This Is My Fight Song,” written by Rachel Platten, and altered the original lyrics to fit Islam. The original lyrics read:
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might have only one match
But I can make an explosion
The teacher’s version went like this:
Like a sandstorm in the desert
Sending camels into motion,
Like how a single faith
Can make a heart open
They might only have one god,
But they can make an explosion.
