-
Nhớ lời em nói là em nói không cần oh

-
Còn yêu em không ? No hề
➔ Ellipsis (omission of words)
➔ The full sentence could be "Còn yêu em không? Không hề còn yêu" (Do you still love me? Not at all still love). The words "còn yêu" are omitted from the second part of the sentence for brevity and emphasis.

Em như tước mất ngai vàng
➔ Figurative language - Metaphor
➔ "Em như tước mất ngai vàng" (You're like taking away the throne) is a metaphor. The ex-lover is compared to the act of dethroning, implying she has taken something valuable from him, perhaps his pride or sense of self-worth.
-
Ăn chơi mà xám hối không ai độ tới nàng
