“Frontier” is inspired by the bravery of those who seek a better life for themselves. Released on National Immigrants Day, this music video is dedicated to the refugees, explorers, and pilgrims who have made epic journeys for their dreams. National Immigrants Day was established on October 28, 1987 by none other than President Ronald Reagan to honor the contributions and achievements of immigrants in shaping culture and society.

Do I seem that strange? Wondering if I’ll ever see the other side The birds are singing to me every single day Why don’t they all want me to stay? Their words are a mystery to me But I can read their eyes If I cross the line, will they come for me? Over there, it’s beautiful – and it’s beckoning to me But if I get through, will I be free? At the crossroads of our lives It’s getting hard to survive And another part of me has died We’ll find another way To face another day Crying over time that’s slipping by A frontier away We’ll be swimming to our dream A frontier away Water’s deeper than it seems I’ve given my life for this moment A frontier away My eyes are watching, waiting But can I truly see? Did another soul just smile back at me? Am I accepted as I’ve turned out to be? Have I come closer through the sea? At the crossroads of our lives It’s getting hard to survive And another part of me has died We’ll find another way To face another day Grieving over time that’s slipping by A frontier away We’ll be swimming to our dream A frontier away It’s wider than it seems I’ve given my life for this moment But swimming in quicksand I reach out for your hand We fall back again And start over We’ll start over again Just around the bend Keeping every thought until the end It’s not far away We’re getting closer every day Nearing our destination Stopping our frustration – yeah Water’s deeper than it seems I’ve given my life for this moment But swimming in quicksand I reach out for your hand We fall back again And start over
