Open your eyes, you can fly! –Lizz Wright

To all those who say “there’s nothing you can do”, I prefer what Lizz Wright sings:
Have the courage to be free
Open your eyes, you can fly!

Lizz Wright is a jazz singer and composer from Hahira, Georgia. You may have seen her on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Here’s that clip of Jay Leno welcoming “critically acclaimed singer” Lizz Wright on 24 Jan 2011; she sings:

I’ve really got to use my imagination
Got to make the best of a bad situation
Topical words for our situation.
