Idk I'd need some comparisons to know how I write

I wish it was but it isn't. I think I have to try more than she does.  When I write I feel like it's very forced but I have to really think about where i'm getting my inspiration to write from.

I would say my music is a lot like my faves.
Here is an excerpt from Hugamari's "A Love That Was Once Ours"
"It hurts to say
My heart today
Aches much more
Than yesterday
When the love fades
We hide the pain
Behind a smile
A masquerade
Our hearts, once whole
They start to break
What once was love
Has turned to hate
We turn away
But we can’t change
That how we feel
Is not the same
We leave our past
In grains of sand
We dust the ash
And try to stand
But we are left
With all the scars
...Of a love that was once ours"
And here is an excerpt from Ke$ha's "F*ck Him He's a DJ"
"F*ck him he's a DJ
All night long he's got the beat
F*ck him he's a DJ
Keep playing that song it works for me
F*ck him he's a DJ
All night long he's got the beat
F*ck him he's a DJ
Keep playing that song it works for me"
Resemblance is uncanny.

I would say, yes, because of course all artists are influenced by other artists.
I don't have one particular fave though and I listen to everything 
But then again, I haven't written anything in a while |
Thanks, sis. 
Here's another one.
Quote:
It’s Okay
Hanging in the backyard, chilling in the hot sun.
Got the drunk text on, just wanna have some fun.
See you across the yard, march over and salute.
Saying hey, how you doing? Nice glute.
And I know that they’re staring at you and me,
Staring at you and me,
But I know that it’s just all fun and games,
Staring at you and me.
And I hear you calling, calling, calling my name,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
And I can feel your body squirming against mine,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
Swirling and dancing all around, falsebound kingdom found.
No way in hell we’re stopping right here tonight.
So drunk with lust, I can’t hear a human sound,
Just know I won’t stop till I get what I want tonight.
Lost my keys and everybody’s staring at me.
Scrambling around drunk and freee,
Lost my keys and everybody’s staring at me.
And I hear you calling, calling, calling my name,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
And I can feel your body squirming against mine,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
So, you take me upstairs, and we’re cuddling along.
I smile inside, and feel like I’m living a song.
And you take my head and take it down, down, down.
So far gone, I couldn’t say no; so, I went along.
And that’s when you said to me,
“I’m thinking of somebody else.”
And my lips tremble, and I’m starstruck,
Brain frozen in time, locked and sealed.
And I hear you calling, calling, calling my name,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
And I can feel your body squirming against mine,
And I breathe in your ears, whisper to you,
That it’s okay, that it’s okay.
And we made love that night,
And we were both out of our minds.
And you weren’t the only one thinking,
Thinking of someone else.
And that’s okay, that’s okay.

That one was about a real night. Such an odd situation to be in to be honest. 
Also AdamAL4 just write something! Anything. you'll get inspired eventually in the process.

My music is nothing like my faves. Kind of lyrically but definitely not musically. It's hard to get that semi-acoustic sound when you don't have a guitarist, drummer, bassist, etc.

Hmm.
Well...it's Winter now. And a lot of poets talk about death and Winter.
Maybe talk about the end of a relationship or something.

Okay Adam, you decide that you are going to go out to the club to have some fun...you meet this girl, and she is really hot and stuff. You decide to try to take her home, but she says "No I ain't no hoochie". So then, you spend about 3-4 months trying to get her to even go on a date with you, and she finally agrees. You date for a few months, and you finally go all the way...then you find out you got her pregnant. You then start panicking because you don't want a kid. Not because you are lazy or hate kids, you just feel like you are not emotionally and financially ready to take care of a kid, and you do not want to ruin the childs life like your parents ruined yours.
Have fun.

Friendly Fire
Verse 1
I saw you from the sides
Those sweet vanilla eyes
Something I can't explain
It makes me go insane
I know what's up with you
It's creeping over me
I saw it in your eyes
And I cannot escape
(hook) x2
Don't Shoot Don't Shoot
I'll adore you
Don't Shoot Don't Shoot
Get in the groove
Chorus
You've got me going crazy
It's in the way you move
I wanna feel it when you
When you get in the groove
I know it's not about the
About the way you move
This friendly fire's shot me
I'm going down with you
Verse 2
Holding your gun aside
Don't need to fantasize
I wont be penalized
For you I go insane
My heart can't take much more
You've got me on the floor
No I can't take much more
You're gonna get it oh
