Eve ft Miss Kitty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Step back, where she at, man I'm in my zone
If you can't keep up with where I'm at,
Then get your ass back home
Raise the flag and tell the people come,
The queen is on the throne
Watch how they leave you standing there,
Just leave you all alone
Matter of fact, I don't give a fuck, you guessed that from my tone
I'm a Philly born, bred, raised, never left my bones
I'm a bossy, glossy rebel,while my name is long
[Chorus]
Ain't no guessing it's E-V-E
I'm the chick that they wish they'd be
Know by now, do not fuck with me
Stay on top, no touching me
I'm the reason you wanna hide
Swallow your face, spit in your eyes
Better than ever, ain't no surprise
See on me, need no disguise
I'm E-V-E
E-E-V-E
E-E-V-E
E-E-V-E
Ain't no guessing it's E-V-E
I'm the chick that they wish they'd be
Know by now, do not fuck with me
Stay on top, no touching me
Ain't no guessing it's E-V-E
I'm the chick that they wish they'd be
Know by now, do not fuck with me
Stay on top, no touching me
Ah,you see how they need her
They was loyal, they keep her
All my friends you the best
Fill my love through the speaker
You the reason I do it, I'm so lucky I can
And taking over the world, now that's just part of the plan
They see me riding in ??? a drop it look at that
Time for shades on, understand that I'm it, that's that
Rock like jet set, drop aboard, I'm living good
Yeah I knew I would, I know you wish you could
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
The song "Eve" by Eve ft. Miss Kitty is an empowering track celebrating the strength, confidence and unapologetic personality of the rapper. Eve sets the premise of the song in the opening lyrics by stating that she is in her zone and anyone who can't keep up with her should leave. She raises the flag as the queen and occupies the throne while leaving others standing alone. This line suggests that the rapper is not afraid to own her status as a boss, and she is unwilling to allow anyone to dim her shine. Eve talks about growing up and learning to get what is hers rather than watching others go get it. She then proceeds to stamp her authority on her life by declaring herself a Philly-born-and-bred bossy, glossy rebel.
The chorus of the song has multiple repetitions of Eve spelling out her name, leaving nobody guessing who the star of the show is. She warns people not to mess with her and stay on top because she is untouchable. The second verse amplifies this feeling of self-worth as the rapper mentions that people need her, and her friends are the best. She is taking over the world, and it's part of the plan. The rapper then talks about how she looks riding in a luxurious car and that she is living the good life because she knew she would. The final line of the song reveals that others also wish they could be like her. The song is a general ode to the rapper's confidence, boldness, and power.

I'm laughing at the people who are calling Eve "underrated", this woman has platinum albums, a multitude of awards, was in multiple movies & had HER OWN SITCOM. Eve is a decorated & highly respected MC, I guess many of you just aren't aware.
@lateshiachilds3640
I'm aware.
@kliegh3213
That doesn't mean she's not underrated. If these people think she needs more credit than platinum awards and a sitcom than that's there opinion. They feel like like she deserves more and that's ok and nothing to laugh at. Always strive for better. God bless
@cresceremuoventesi
K Leigh got it right. To say someone is underrated doesn't mean they haven't had success.
@0bstinacy
+Daniel Noel well she is now underrated because we have people like nicki, iggy lol people wanna gawk at tits and ass than listen to something that actually good on its own merit.
@Jasmine-ln4hk
