Like we did before
We're rockin' rocksteady
My time is all yours
'Cause you'll save me
Oh rocksteady
Push my back on the wall
My mind's running away
As we move in the light
Yes we got the whole night
As it changes to day
We're rockin' rocksteady
Like we did before
We're rockin' rocksteady
My time is all yours
'Cause you'll save me
Oh rocksteady
Lose myself in the beat
Where the rhythm takes me
Now we're losing control
Like the day we first kiss
Nothing seems to exist
Rockin' steady my soul
We're rockin' rocksteady
Like we did before
We're rockin' rocksteady

The lyrics to Rox's song "Rocksteady" describe the power of music and love to transport us to another world, where we are free to lose ourselves in the beat and dance all night long. The song's title, "Rocksteady," refers to the steady, pulsating rhythm of reggae music, which forms the backbone of the song. Throughout the lyrics, the singer is urging their lover to take control and lead them in the dance, promising to surrender all control and follow their lead.
The first verse sets the scene for the night, as the couple "rock[s] steady" in the same way they did before, perhaps harkening back to a past romantic encounter. The second verse suggests a sense of urgency and abandon, with the singer pleading to be taken over by the music and the moment. The chorus repeats the refrain that the singer's time is all theirs, asking their partner to save them with the power of their love and the music they make together.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of liberation and joy that come with letting go and getting lost in the music. The song encourages us to surrender control and allow ourselves to be carried away on the rhythm and the emotion of the moment.
