'Did My Time' is a song written and recorded by American nu metal band Korn for the film, Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. It was released as a single in July 2003 in support of the film, and was later featured on the band's sixth studio album, Take a Look in the Mirror.
Korn – Did My Time Lyrics. Realized I can never win Sometimes.Feel like I have failed Inside where do I begin My mind is laughing at me. I did my time I am the one who chose my path I am the one who couldn't last I feel the life pulled from me I feel the anger changing me. Music and structure[edit]The song was an unfinished demo from 2002's Untouchables. James 'Munky' Shaffer had written the main riff and was playing it every day, and producer Michael Beinhorn couldn't stand it. In early 2003, Korn completed the whole song, and caught the attention of Paramount Pictures who wanted to use it in the film Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. However, the song was only released as a single for the film, and featured during the films end credits. It did not appear on the motion picture soundtrack, due to certain clauses in Jonathan Davis's record contract at the time,[1] the same reason why Davis could not release the original versions of the songs he composed for the Queen of the Damnedsoundtrack, which featured his vocals. The instrumental version of 'Did My Time' was also featured on the PlayStation 2 fighting game 'Fight Club' and VH1's 100 most shocking music moments in the discussion of the Woodstock 1999 riot. Concept[edit]'It's basically about things in my life that keep going on. When am I fucking finally gonna get a break? I'm saying 'I paid my dues I did my time.' All the messed up shit going on in my life. When is something good gonna happen?' – Jonathan Davis Chart performance[edit]'Did My Time' became Korn's first and only top forty entry on the Hot 100, peaking at number thirty-eight in August 2003,[2] The martian hindi 1080p torrent. due to the physical sales of the CD single.

Music video[edit]A video was directed by Dave Meyers, mainly known for his work with rapper Missy Elliott, featuring the star of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, Angelina Jolie.[1] The video shows Angelina Jolie walking through an alley when the ground starts to crack. A black mist rises out of the cracks, which then transforms into the band when the main riff of the song starts. The black mist around them starts becomes bigger as the song progresses. In the end of the music video, the band disappears and the cracks disappear as well. Scenes from the movie are shown during the video. Awards[edit]The song received a nomination at the 2004 Grammy Awards for Best Metal Performance, but lost to Metallica's 'St. Anger'.[4] This would be Korn's fourth nomination in the aforementioned category and their sixth overall.

Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 is a greatest hitscompilation released in October 2004 by American rock band Korn. The album features select tracks from their first six studio albums presented in reverse chronological order. There are two previously unreleased songs on the compilation: a cover of Cameo's 'Word Up!', and a compilation of all three parts of Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick in the Wall' and 'Goodbye Cruel World'. These were the final songs recorded with former guitarist Brian Welch, who left the band shortly after the album's release, until his return in 2013. Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 debuted and peaked at number four on the Billboard 200, achieving a Platinum certification by the RIAA.[4][5] For unspecified reasons Korn left off three of their hits, 'Thoughtless', 'No Place to Hide' and 'Good God' but included songs 'Trash' and 'Twist' on the album, though neither were released as singles. The version of 'Freak on a Leash' on this album features an extended intro. Because of this, the back cover lists the length of the track as being 4:15 (the length of the album version on Follow the Leader), when the length of the version on this album is 4:27.
