"Chasing the dragon" is a method of partaking in heroin or opium wherein the user places the drug upon foil and users a lighter to heat it. It turns into a sticky liquid that moves around like a Chinese dragon".
I do NOT do drugs, nor have I ever taken heroin or opium, but I thought the term sounded cool and it was this (as well as "dragon" being synonymous with "the devil") and scenes from the film From Hell that inspired the lyrics.
One time performing live I accidentally started rapping the second verse first and being an amateur stopped the set to start the song again.
