[Intro - Heartbeat 808] One beat. Then another. Then the whole world starts to move. [Beat Drops] [Verse 1] They call me Ares. God of the clash. Steel on steel. Blood in the flash. No map. No throne. No careful plan. Just the moment hand meets hand. [Instrumental - Heavy bass groove] [Pre-Chorus] You can dress war in flags and gold. Strip it bare— I'm what it holds. [Chorus] Ares. War has a heartbeat. Feel it hit. Feel it start. One drum under every heart. No peace. No pause. No reason left. When the first blow lands— you know me in your chest. [Bass Drop / Guitar Slam] [Verse 2] Kings make speeches. Priests make claims. Men draw borders. I take no names. You call it glory. You call it right. I call it what it is— the will to fight. [Instrumental] [Bridge - Close, controlled vocal] Athena keeps the clever war. Plans the move. Counts the score. I don't calculate. I collide. She wins the battle. I am the fight. [Beat Drops Out] One breath. One beat. [Heavy Guitar Hit] Then impact. [Long Instrumental Build] [Final Chorus] Ares. War has a heartbeat. Feel it hit. Feel it start. One drum under every heart. No crown. No cause. No sacred lie. When reason leaves— I come alive. [Extended Instrumental - 808s and heavy guitar] [Outro - Heartbeat fading] One beat. Then another. You knew me before you knew my name.
