Copyright Strike on My Newgrounds Account

General
*sigh* I guess machines aren't perfect.
I was planning on posting a song on my Newgrounds account so that I could share it with you guys tomorrow. Tomorrow, I was planning on posting a Journal here linking to some songs that I posted online to Newgrounds, but I apparently got into a little bit of trouble.
The Newgrounds algorithm believes that my song, one called "A Song of Remorse - Version 2" may have plagiarized a song called "Our God is Willing to Help You" by John Alejandro. But I can't, for the life of me, see the similarities between the two songs. I've never even heard of this song, nor have I heard of the artist.
What's more is that I composed "A Song of Remorse" from the ground up, without having been inspired by any other song. I composed three versions of this song, and I already posted "Version 1" of the song on Newgrounds already, and there wasn't even so much of an issue when I did post it. And Version 1 pretty much has the same melody, motif, and repetition as the second version.
I am a little bit upset, to say the least, but I hope that this issue will be resolved, and I can get to sharing my songs with you guys.
I did post my "A Song of Remorse - Version 2" track here on my Fur Affinity Account, so if you guys want to listen to the song you can find it there. I hope you guys can enjoy it and figure out for yourselves if it copies the song by John Alejandro.
Anyways, I hope you all can enjoy the song I have coming up. And I hope to be able to continue sharing the songs that I've composed.
Let's hope Newgrounds doesn't try anything with me. I've never plagiarized anything before, and I'm not about to lose access to Newgrounds because the stupid algorithm thought that my song even slightly resembled another artist's work.
Here's hoping for the best.
