Hello. I don’t understand the meaning of this sentence (Grad geht’s entzwei)
It’s falling or breaking apart. Quite literally it translates as it’s going into two pieces.

As RB79 said, “entzwei” means “into two parts, in half”. “Entzweigehen” is most often used in the general meaning of “fall to pieces”; “break down”.
However, maybe you find this sentence difficult partly because of the word “grad”? It can be a bit puzzling for a learner because if you look it up in a normal dictionary, you’ll find that it means “degree”. However, it’s often a slangish abbreviation of the word “gerade”, as seems to be the case in your example:
Grad geht’s entzwei = Gerade geht es entzwei: It is [gerade = right now, as we speak] falling to pieces.
