Proud To Be A Greek
When an Alpha looks in the mirror,
Looking back he sees,
A man of Vision, Stature and Integrity.
When an AKA looks in the mirror,
Looking back she sees,
A woman of Virtue, Education, and Dignity.
When a Kappa looks in the mirror,
Looking back he sees,
A man of Intelligence, Service, and Possibility.
When an Omega looks in the mirror,
Looking back he sees,
A man of Strength, Heart, and Masculinity.
When a Delta looks in the mirror,
Looking back she sees,
A woman of Sophistication, Love, and Excellency.
When a Sigma looks in the mirror,
Looking back he sees,
A man of Honor, Purpose, and Ability.
When a Zeta looks in the mirror,
Looking back she sees,
A woman of Trust, Action, and Ingenuity.
When a Sigma Gamma Rho looks in the mirror,
Looking back she sees,
A woman of Care, Soul, and Humility.
When an Iota looks in the mirror,
Looking back he sees,
A man of Distinction, Progress, and Utility.
When a Greek looks in the mirror,
Looking back they see,
A long line of struggling brothers and sisters,
To ensure our freedom and equality.
When a Greek looks in the mirror,
Looking back they see,
The ability to change the world
In each of their founders' dreams..
When a Greek looks in the mirror,
Looking back they see,
The eyes of a nation focusing
On what this world was meant to be.
When a Greek looks in the mirror,
Looking back they shouldn't see,
Colors, calls and symbols
Misused to fracture and degrade a community.
When a Greek looks in the mirror,
Looking back they should see,
The collective gathering of the Divine Nine
To unite and encourage
A nation in need
Because
When a Non-Greek looks at a Greek,
Looking back they should see,
A helping hand,
An encouraging heart,
And a vision to succeed.
