Shaina Hayes, "Steady" (Official Lyric Video)

The official lyric video is on her YouTube channel. Apple Music times the track at 4 minutes and 12 seconds. The announcement describes the song as being built around the stillness that can come with indecision, and credits Montreal musician Lysandre Ménard with the upright piano at its center.

Hayes' official site already lists earlier singles from the same album cycle, including "Tempest," "Timid," and "Flourish." Apple Music dates the "Timid" single to May 26, 2026.

Her earlier albums are to coax a waltz, released April 29, 2022, and Kindergarten Heart, released February 23, 2024, both confirmed on Apple Music.
