@-Enki In general I agree with @em10's translations but I just wanted to add a few remarks:
6. I heard that this is similar to 'no es santo de mi devoción'
7. a literal "rat race" is a maze for rats that scientists use/used to study their thought-process & psychology (how they would run the maze). Generally people use it to describe human life -especially their own life - in modern society in reference to a feeling of powerlessness to control their lives/lifestyle/surroundings that they believe is almost controlled by higher (human) powers like scientists over rats in a laboratory.

"Rat race" implies that the normal people are living their lives selfishly (especially for consumerism) while being cheated from a free, happy life. This is a difficult concept but it is (very) common in U.S. to live like this.
