About

"I'm Already Tracer" is a memorable lyric from the song "No Mercy" by The Living Tombstone. In October 2018, the song was used in a series of lip dubbed TikTok Duet videos.

Origin

On January 12th, 2017, the Mashed YouTube channel uploaded an animated music video for the song "No Mercy" by The Living Tombstone, which contains a segment in which YouTubers Black Gryph0n and LittleJayneyCakes sing an argument over which characters to play in the game Overwatch.



BlackGryph0n: Maybe I'll be Tracer.
LittleJayneyCakes: I'm already Tracer.
BlackGryph0n: What about Widowmaker?
LittleJayneyCakes: I'm already Widowmaker.
BlackGryph0n: I'll be Bastion.
LittleJayneyCakes: Nerf Bastion!
BlackGryph0n: You're right. So, Winston.
LittleJayneyCakes: I wanna be Winston.
BlackGryph0n: I guess I'll be Genji.
LittleJayneyCakes: I'm already Genji.
BlackGryph0n: Then I'll be McCree.
LittleJayneyCakes: I already chose McCree.

I can't help but feel TikTok is an example of a "necessary evil" if only because you know for a fact all the infamous people from Musical.ly would have just migrated to YouTube were it not for TikTok's existence (a bunch of people were like "and nothing of value was lost" when Vine ended, but once Viners simply moved to YouTube people began to wish Vine was still around to at least keep certain infamous Viners from plaguing YT).
