"Steal" and "steel" are homophones - they sound exactly the same. Both have a long vowel sound. "Still" has a short vowel sound. All three words are stressed in the sentence. "I" and "the" are unstressed.

Your best bet would be to hear a native speaker say them, rather than trying to understand a written explanation. Check out www.forvo.com and search for any word you want :)
