The EP’s opener We Just Be is easily the record’s catchiest offering. Riding on a sparse beat, Mickey unleashes all his infatuation and puts in a sugary, chorus to make the track stick in your head. The next track Dahlin, on the other hand, switches to an energetic dance vibe. Very noticeably, a lot of the EP’s brilliance attributes itself to the production by Benstar (Benny Liang). We see Benny at his strongest on the last track, Picture Perfect, where the dreamy, psychedelic air that he builds strongly reminds of Frank Ocean’s latest album, Blond.
The one thing, however, that A Man In Love makes clear immediately is that Mickey is not a fan of subtlety, at least lyrically. “Be my ice-cream sundae, would you be my candycane” goes a line from We Just Be, and another, “If I put you up on Youtube, you’ll get a billion views” on All Ours, All Hours. The corniness, it seems, is a part of Mickey’s aesthetic, and lends a light-heartedness to his blazing passion.
Fired Up

Take you out for beverages
What you say if I say I wanna be more then friends with benefits yea
Girl you got me goin′ mental, now I feel
Like a degenerate, yeah-yea-yea-yea
If i told you how I really feel, girl tell me could you handle it yea?
Cause you get me fired up, fired up
Really get me going, going
Think that you would know this by now
Girl I'm ready if you′re ready, I'm as
Ready as I'll ever be, yea
(I′m ready for you babe)
Call me crazy,

(Call me what you want to)
We can do this how you wanna do it, we
Can do it steadily, yea-yea-yea-yea
Lay it on me, I want all of you both
Physically and mentally

Cause you get me fired up, fired up

Girl you get me fired up, fired up

They seem to be looking for some reassurance from the friend that they share the same feelings.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the singer's intense feelings for the friend, saying that they get "fired up" and "going" when they think about them. The repetition of this phrase reinforces the intensity of the emotion. The bridge of the song suggests that the singer is willing to take things slow and do things the friend's way, indicating that their priority is to be with the friend however they can.
In summary, the lyrics of Fired Up by Mickey Blue paint a picture of someone who is struggling with romantic feelings for a friend, but is hesitant to act on them without knowing if their feelings are reciprocated.

Heard your song on TikTok took me a while to find it online, but I found you, I’m obsessed with this song now, it’s the vibe musically and vocals for sure, I’m surprised you’re not more well-known because I listened to one of your other songs, and was digging it too. The point is so far I’m really enjoying your music I subscribed to your channel.
