Then you need to show that there is a underlying reality.
Close your eyes! Imagine things. Imagine a unicorn. Imagine something nobody has ever imagined before!
Remember your fondest childhood memories. Remember that delicious meal you had last week.
That's Metaphysics. That's "The Construct".
Now express what you imagined. Describe it to me. Draw it to me. Paint it for me. Re-create what you imagined so that I can experience it too.
That's creativity - language, logic, art, poetry, music, sculpture, scientific models, invention, spirituality, systems, societies, governments, schools, books, religions, deities.
All of it - created!
The language to talk about the
concepts of atoms, quarks, molecules, physics, processes, evolution, organisms, morality, humanity, ethics, ontology, metaphysics, science and philosophy.
Created!
All thanks to metaphysics.
The process of manifestation off the metaphysical to the physical.
That's creation, creativity. And if you so feel like it - creationism.
Knowledge is the product of metaphysics.
Least you forged that you are a physical being in a physical universe - your metaphysic is the product of physics.

If physics is a field of study which describes reality then there is no room left for metaphysics.
There is plenty of room for metaphysics! A part of the reality (humans!) is trying to describe reality!
A part of reality is trying to describe itself. It's beautiful.
