The "id" is a concept that originates from psychology ... the "id" is the "impulsive" part of he mind. Surely you can find the definition in a dictionary?

The final phrase is a simile. The main part of the sentence is likened to (using "as") an id (an unconscious mind or psyche) run amok (idiom for "out-of-control") lashes out (descriptive verb for "attacks").
