Every time I'm lucid (I've been lucid 1-4 times..) I can't fly, have superpowers, close my eyes and be somewhere else.. nothing.
The only thing I can do is "normal things".. why is that?

Well it is quite normal that you don't have superpowers at first, because you are so used to the laws of the physical universe, that you create those laws inside your dreams too. The most important thing is to know that you have total control over your dreams, even if it doesn't seem so at first. Train yourself with little things first, like summoning things, changing color of things, trying moving little things, then try bigger and bigger things, till you get total control over your dreams.
Trust me, if you train yourself a little, you will have total control soon.
EDIT: btw, oh I'm new here too, that is only my personal advice, I haven't tried it in an LD yet, but training greatly improved my daytime imagination quality.
Because you haven't learned how to control your dreams. :) You should read the forum for dream control, and read the dream control tutorial. Both of these should be very helpful. Just remember to always start small. Change details instead of entire objects and such.
Good luck learning to control your dreams. :)
Oh, and welcome to DreamViews!
Hi and :welcome:
A lot of people don't have superpowers in their first few LDs, so don't be angry with yourself. SolvedSnake is right about you being used to how real life is.
Watch more movies with superpowers and daydream about yourself having superpowers. Maybe that will help a bit (it helped me, I could fly and move objects without touching them in my first LD)
