It is telling you that your phone is locked to your original carrier which in this case is Metro PCS. You can use it with another carrier but it will need to be unlocked. To do this you will need to buy an unlock code. There are multiple websites online that sell them but I'm not sure which ones are legit so you'll have to find that out on your own.
