It seems like a metaphore. I see it as a creature made up by humans, and that creature know that there's something above (those humans) and he wants to know more. Like there were a feeling of emptiness:

Do you really wanna be Just another one statistic or feel

That you really should aspire That you really do deserve more

By metaphore I mean that it could be applied to humans, looking in the sky, wondering if that's all they deserve. I often feel I could be much more than I am, and that's what that song means for me ^^

I want to meet my father beyond--- My creator, whoever he is. A god, hasard, something else? Who knows.
