In each of their founders' dreams.

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.
