Steady, steady, holding steady

Steady, steady, hold it steady

If the king says you're not worthy

I'm still going to hold you steady

———

Drowning, downing, I'm still drowning

All around these streets are burning

If the boss says we're just clowning

I'm still going to face this drowning

———

Fire, fire, scorching fire

Burning bodies on the pyre

If the king thinks he is higher

I will still burn in this fire

———

Grateful, grateful, don’t be grateful

We want love not just survival

If the boss thinks he’s merciful

It’s not going to make us grateful

———

Judgement, judgement, final judgement

For all those who made us servants

If they find out rights repugnant

Don’t show mercy in your judgement
