I think this is clearly about Antony's sexuality, which is a huge part of his identity. He feels he is finally in control of his destiny (no one can stop him from doing what he wants, personified here as flight, which he is only just ready for: "I've got my heart/Here in my hands now/I've been searching/For my wings some time/I'm gonna be born/Into soon the sky")
also that gays/transgendered people will not be damned just for being gay ("bird girls go to heaven"), which also indicates belief in a higher being (many people think gays must be atheists since the religions of the Book [Christianity, Judaism, and Islam] are interpreted as condemning homosexuality)
it's not specific though; its about simply being free and independent regardless of any differences
I've seen V, but i don't remember hearing this song in it.... well, it was a long time ago, and i want to see it again
but i've read the scene described, and i think it would have worked wonderfully
