This whole song is based around the concept of karma and how unity is an important aspect of life. Here the singer alludes that the essence of life pulled his strings, and that he couldn’t do just anything.
The first line is quite similar to the following Beatles line that started off their song “Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)”.
I’m having trouble picturing how ‘the essence of life’ can ‘pull strings’. There is also no support for his claim that the song declares ‘unity is an important part of life’. For the most part, the above annotation is simply opinion.
