La Calle Lyrics in English Tercer Cielo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song La Calle by Tercer Cielo from Spanish to English.
Otra mañana mas
One more morning
Me toca despertar sin deseo alguno
I have to wake up with no desire at all
De volverme a levantar
To get up again
No quiero escuchar las noticias que suenan siempre
I don't want to listen to the news that always plays
En mi barro al desayunar
In my neighborhood while having breakfast
¿Supiste que mataron al hijo de don fulano?, llevaba
Did you hear that they killed Don So-and-so's son?, he had
Tiempo que algo así se andaba el buscando'
He'd been looking for something like that for a while
Y lo encontro
And he found it
Me duele el corazon y se me va la voz
My heart aches and my voice fades
Llorando al ver como se pierde mi generacion
Crying as I watch how my generation is lost
Los que vi crecer, con los que jugue
The ones I saw grow up, the ones I played with
Los amigos que tuve en la escuela y tanto ame
The friends I had at school and loved so much
Cuando me converti dijeron que yo estaba loco
When I converted they said that I was crazy
Que esta vida hay que gozarla porque no hay otra
That you have to enjoy this life because there's no other
La calle es como un banco que te puede prestar
The street is like a bank that can lend to you
Y luego con un interes muy alto comparar
And then charge a very high interest
No se trata de dinero, y luego no podras pagar
It's not about money, and later you won't be able to pay
Mientras te va cobrando lo mejor te quitara
While it keeps collecting it'll take the best from you
La calle sabe que tu tienes potencial
The street knows that you have potential
Que Dios para tu vida tiene algo especial
That God has something special for your life
Pero la calle viene y te brinda vanidad
But the street comes and offers you vanity
Haciendote creer que no te puedes escapar
Making you believe that you can't escape
Pero no es verdad
But it's not true
Recuerdo aquella vez
I remember that time
Fue un martes 16, el intento de asalto
It was Tuesday the 16th, the robbery attempt
Que hize con José, parecía que todo saldría
That I pulled with José, it seemed that everything would turn out
Bien, nos ibamos despúes de el dinero recoger
Fine, we were leaving after collecting the money
¿quien iba a pensar que del bolso de una señora
Who would've thought that from a lady's purse
Podrían salir dos disparos de una pistola?
Two shots from a gun could come out?
Y nos impacto
And it hit us
Y 15 días despúes fue cuando desperte
And 15 days later I woke up
Estuve al borde de la muerte pero me salve
I was at death's edge but I was saved
Dios me permitio volver a nacer
God allowed me to be born again
Aquel chance que yo tuve bien lo aproveche
I made good use of that chance I had
Yo pregunte por José cuando volvio a mi mente
I asked about José when he came back to my mind
Alguien me dijo no la hizo la bala fue en la frente
Someone told me he didn't make it, the bullet was in his forehead
La calle es como un banco que te puede prestar
The street is like a bank that can lend to you
Y luego con un interes muy alto comparar
And then charge a very high interest
No se trata de dinero, y luego no podras pagar
It's not about money, and later you won't be able to pay
Mientras te va cobrando lo mejor te quitara
While it keeps collecting it'll take the best from you
La calle sabe que tu tienes potencial
The street knows that you have potential
Que Dios para tu vida tiene algo especial
That God has something special for your life
Pero la calle viene y te brinda vanidad
But the street comes and offers you vanity
Haciendote creer que no te puedes escapar
Making you believe that you can't escape
Pero no es verdad
But it's not true
