Am I, am I in love Or am I off the drugs?
➔ Repetition for emphasis ('Am I, am I'). Use of 'off' in 'off the drugs' to indicate being in a state resulting from ceasing drug use.
➔ Two contrasting questions posed to question the speaker's feelings/state of mind. The use of 'off' here implies a departure from a state induced by drugs, rather than simply not taking them.

➔ Use of 'like' to indicate resemblance or similarity. Informal language ('fuck', 'thug').
➔ This line contains sexually explicit language, and it's using the word 'like' as a comparative element indicating how the speaker has intercourse.
-
Let the chains hit her face
➔ Imperative sentence ('Let the chains hit her face'). 'Let' used to allow or permit something to happen.
➔ An imperative statement portraying violence. 'Let' here doesn't literally mean permission but rather a declaration of intent or inevitability.

Thoughts contrived, yeah, baby I can never do right in your mind
