Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh, it's the Q to the, B to the, double E, spittin' lovely
And it don't stop, rocks shine through my tank top
Where your bank stop, I deposit all the one drops (ha)
Think not, excuse me but uh I like to flow
'Cause this joint knocks harder then Indica and
I be off the wall like the Lox, night box filled with Benjamins
Makin' all you other rappers begin again, like Fennigan
Christians repent, then sin again, girls wanna be my friend again
Lay up in my crib up wit', get up in my linens and
While misdemeanor hit notes like Sarafinna, I subpeona you
To my funk grooves, see, I hit you wit' the huh
She wit' ya with the hee
It wasn't your car that had me all in love with you (you)
'Cause I've got my own ride and a trunk full of tunes, yeah (tunes)
I drive through your hood
And I hit 'em with the
I hit 'em with the hee
I hit 'em with the
I stop 'em with the ha (I stop 'em with the ha)
Ooh, let's drink to you (let's drink to you and me)
And me (let's drink to you and me)
Meet me at the bar (hee ha, hee ha)
It wasn't your money that had me all sprung out (say what, say what?)
(Sprung out, sprung out, sprung out)
'Cause I got my own account and my bills in large amount
Ayy, ayy, ayy
I drive through your hood, and I
I hit 'em with the hee
I hit 'em with the (I hit 'em)
I stop 'em with the ha (I hit 'em wit' the hee, I hit 'em wit' the ha)
Let's drink (let's drink to you and me)
Let's drink to you and me (let's drink to you and me)
Oh, yeah yeah (meet me at the bar)
You can meet me at the bar
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Long Iced Tea slurp me swiftly (say what?) meet me at the bar (say what?)
What's up star? We know who you are (uh huh)
Shit, no shit I thought you hadn't noticed
The way I roll this Dutch, the way I roll this Dutch
Niggas love my style too much (ha ha)
Duck, here comes the shot, bang, bang, brrt, drop
Me and Timbaland, like ha, we takin' over blocks
Like a one billion bitch march

In Missy Elliott's song Hit Em Wit Da Hee featuring Lil' Kim and Mocha, the lyrics showcase their confidence and individuality. Missy's verse is all about her skill as a rapper and her ability to knock out any competition in the game. She references the Lox, a hip-hop group known for their aggressive style, to emphasize her tenacity. The line "Christians repent, then sin again" is a comment on the hypocrisy she sees in the world. She is unapologetic about her success and the material possessions that come with it, such as banks full of "one drops" and nights spent getting "pissy up in Bennigans" with her girl Missy.
Lil' Kim's verse is all about her independence and financial stability. She talks about how she doesn't need a man's money to be successful and that her own "account and bills in large amount" is enough. The hook "I hit 'em with the hee, I hit 'em with the ha" is catchy and showcases their swagger. The call to "meet me at the bar" is a nod both to the party scene and to their power as women in a male-dominated industry.
Overall, Hit Em Wit Da Hee is a confident and empowering song for women in hip-hop.
