    In response to a previous comment Dan Bull highlighted; In one of Blizzard's early comics that focused on Symmetra, She monologued how everyone asked: "[...] Where I fit on the Spectrum."
    Extra (probably unnecessary) quote: Symmetra, "It used to bother me. Because I knew it was true. It doesn't bother me anymore. Because I can do things nobody else can do." Page six of A Better World by Andrew Robinson and Jeffrey "Chamba" Cruz.

      Furthermore and in addition to this it was confirmed directly by one of the game's writers (or a dev I can't remember) that this line was intentionally included after a fan specifically asked them about it and as someone with asperger's syndrome myself it was very appealing to hear Dan's inclusion of this within the song

    [lyrics]:
    Verse 1:
    Symmetra light spectrum stretcher
    Like someone gave a rectal speculum
    To Escher
    Bypassing time
    Passing right through the projector
    Rejecting physics
    Like an upside down
    Bottle of ketchup
    Oblivious to implicit suggestion
    Or gesture
    Or unnecessary pleasantries
    Etiquette et cetera
    She projects refractions
    That increase in their effect
    With each and every second
    That is passing
    Cleaning up the battlefield
    Satya she'll shield her companions
    From the heat of all the action
    And she needn't even be there
    When it happens
    Redirecting atoms
    Into geometric patterns
    Reconnect the fractions
    Of a beam as a distraction
    From the reading of the captions
    She's just seeing your reaction
    And perceiving matter
    That is weaved
    Between all the abstractions
    You can check the schematics
    She's not electric
    Pneumatic, frenetic, erratic
    Or susceptible to panic
    Although she's definitely
    Lacking in empathetic empathicness
    You know she'll never be melodramatic
    Instead it's pure mathematics
    Such a clever mechanic
    Although she's enigmatic
    You can expect a definite strategy
    Careful method
    And tactically impeccable
    Perfect immaculate
    And yet coming at it from every facet
    So you can bet there's no one better
    Than Symmetra is at it
    Look, free radical
    Resetting the static, hook
    Chorus:
    In a blaze of Azure
    She's electric
    Opening up an unknown door
    She's electric
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    She will glint and gleam and glide
    She's electric
    In a seamless beam of light
    She's electric
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    She will glint and gleam and glide
    She's electric
    In a seamless beam of light
    She's electric
    Verse 2:
    Given her obsession
    With the colour spectrum
    It is little wonder
    That she's on the spectrum
    Plucking string theory
    With a one dimension Plectrum
    Jamming with the devil is heavy
    Better be expecting
    The next level of perfection
    An excessive obsession with order
    Given less than a second
    She'll have to set up the teleporter
    Drawn a straight line
    That never turns a corner
    And explained why her syndrome
    Isn't a disorder
    She will have opened a path
    A literal
    Not literary
    Momentary lapse
    Picture the moment
    You actually notice perhaps
    She's in a zone alone
    And no one knows
    If she will or won't be reacting
    Blowing open so many fractals
    No wonder she's not overly focused
    On being socially tactful
    Doesn't find those roles fun to perform no
    She's more at home among function and form
    So appreciate the beat
    The shape of the funk and inform
    Those people mistakenly making the assumption
    She's boring
    See beneath the surface
    There's always a deeper meaning
    Reason and purpose
    Search exhaustively underneath
    All of the layers
    Autistic traits
    Are shaping order from chaos
    Fate entwined
    Manipulating light
    Painting time
    Wait rewind
    Manipulating time
    Painting light
    Fate entwined
    Chorus:
    In a blaze of Azure
    She's electric
    Opening up an unknown door
    She's electric
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    She will glint and gleam and glide
    She's electric
    In a seamless beam of light
    She's electric
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    Irrespective what a reflection's trajectory is
    Symmetra projects
    Technicolor retinal tears and tears
    In a blaze of Azure
    She's electric
    Opening up an unknown door
    She's electric
    She will glint and gleam and glide
    She's electric
    In a seamless beam of light
    She's electric

    The song was fantastic, Dan. I'm super excited everytime I see you upload.
    With that said I think the video could have been done better. The effects you used at some points during the video were cool but I think just clips of regular gameplay in the back could have been interjected with clips of her highlight intros or emotes, along with 3rd person views of the gameplay using the Replay feature.
    Otherwise dude masterful work. You are a poet unmatched.

      yeah the videos aren't the best, I think the person who edits the videos doesn't know/like overwatch. Like, remember in the Widowmaker one where both the song and the soundmixing were set to that one scene, but they didn't use it in the video?

    Seriously, I don't think there's any other rapper than can match your speed, Dan Bull.
    As for the next hero? I don't know, whoever you feel like making a rap about. Just keep it up with these masterpieces of rap music!
    Although, I am a little excited on what the Soldier: 76 rap might sound like.

    My favorite Dan Bull Overwatch rap used to be Widowmaker's rap, but after hearing this one, my opinion changed. This rap has a unique flow. That and I am on the Autism Spectrum, so some of the lyrics resonate with me.
    Autism in a more minor manifestation isn't a disorder but just another attribute of human diversity.
