beat it
I have heard " beat it " in an American sitcom.
Does it mean kind of " go" ? Because they is what it seemed to mean to me.

If so how come?

Thank you

Answer

Yes, it means 'go away' ( or colloquially 'get lost'!)

Answer

Yes,   "beat it"  means "go away!".

Other expressions  which mean the same are:   "Get Lost"    "Go stuff yourself"  
  "Get stuffed"  "Go jump in a lake"    "shove off"   and many more expressions which  do not matter very much except as some sort of  defense against hostile people who intrude into your life.
