The Halo Effect

If there is one thing I remember It is what life told Just open your eyes All that glisters may not be gold So who is to blame and whose fault I hold The halo effect, the one in disguise Manifesting deception in front of thy eyes Treat one different because of their look Why read? Judge the cover of the book? But you do read others because they don’t have the look If you understand, how long has it took? The halo effect, we magnify a trait Condone the flaws, we magnify a trait Attractiveness, is this what you mean? All this talk, my perception a feign? What I see, aint what it seem? Huh, thanks for this, as well as that. The halo effect, my mind was hacked.
