Like fossil fuels come from organic matter that grew because of the sun. Is there any form of energy on that cannot be traced back to the sun in some way?

Where did the Sun’s energy come from?
The gravitational collapse of a cloud of mostly hydrogen in the vacuum of space.
And anything falling together under gravity was given that kinetic energy from somewhere* and ultimately it can all be traced back to the Big Bang.
As for where that energy came from, it’s possible we’ll never know. Most organised religions (and no doubt a few disorganised ones) have their theories, of course. You may subscribe to one of these.
* This is the principle most commonly simplified as “what goes up, must come down”
Brane cosmology suggests the collision of two branes can result in a big bang event, but yes, that is beyond an event horizon.
