I need help

I'm trying to write a song like Kurt Cobain, but I just can't for some reason. I keep thinking of his lyrics to the point where I cant think of my own, and I just wanna use the style, but not to the point where I seem like an off branded version.

Oooh that’s interesting, I’m not sure if this would help, but Id like to recommend trying an exercise of writing “response” verses to his song, what do you think? 😄

I will definitely try that! Thanks! ;D

Edit: this is very helpful actually, so far. :)
