Because you like showing everyone that you know random useless things that only you care about.

NORTH MIAMI SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL ALMA MATER
Oh! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, for in our hearts we sing to thee:
O'er the fair Atlantic shore, the sun fills each new day
With bright hopes now and more each morrow, for the Green and Gray!
To thee we pledge our loyalty, to thee our minds and hearts
From thy radiant Green and Gray, our love will ne'er depart!
Hail to North Miami, hail to North Miami, hail to thee!
FIGHT SONG
Fight, fight you Pioneers, we're gonna drive right through that line
We're gonna hit 'em high, we're gonna hit 'em low, show 'em that we're gonna go, go, go!
And then we'll forge on to victory, and we'll be sure the whole world hears -
We've got the best team in the land, at North Miami, the Pioneers!
As far as I know, the music and lyrics of our alma mater are original compositions; many other high school alma mater songs I've heard borrow the tune from 'High Above Cayuga's Waters' and make the alma mater lyrics fit. I don't know about the fight song's origin, though.
