You're talking about theology, not metaphysics.

I meant as in trying to figure out how the universe came to be etc. Not the study of religions.

Like yeah could of been "god" but it also could've been nothing at all, or something else

Yeah that's not what metaphysics is.

Yeah it is

metaphysics, branch of philosophy whose topics in antiquity and the Middle Ages were the first causes of things and the nature of being. In postmedieval philosophy, however, many other topics came to be included under the heading “metaphysics.” (The reasons for this development will be discussed in the body of the article.)
