Rosewood is a 1997 film directed by John Singleton. While based on historic events of the 1923 Rosewood massacre in Florida, when a white mob killed blacks and destroyed their town, the film introduces fictional characters and changes from historic accounts. In a major change, it stars Ving Rhames as an outsider who comes into Rosewood and inspires residents to self-defense, wielding his pistols in a fight. The supporting cast includes Don Cheadle as Sylvester Carrier, a resident who was a witness, defender of his family and victim of the riot; and Jon Voight as a sympathetic white store owner who lives in a village near Rosewood. The three characters become entangled in an attempt to save people from racist whites attacking the blacks of Rosewood.
Due to its scenes of violence, assault, and sex, and profuse use of racial slurs and curses, the film received an Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) rating of R. It was favorably reviewed by many critics, more than any John Singleton film since Boyz n the Hood. The film was not a commercial success, and it was unable to recoup its $30 million budget at the box office.

Sometimes I get it rightSometimes it all falls into place
And I guess I made my mind
I never liked the taste
And I know you shouldn't try
Just waste away your days
So I can make mistakes
And I can prove you right
Where were you, the very first
Go on and let it ride
Here I am, take your best shot
They'll jump in right where you left off
This is for you, it's a pity for your means
Those blue eyes of yours can't get you everything
I already gave you everything
So what if I did it right
So what if I never tried
Well I never needed this
