On god, you cappin' rn fr
"Honestly, you are lying right now for real"
A hater gets caught lackin' in the crib and you think that's my vibe
"Someone who doesn't like me gets caught without enough to defend themselves in the house, and you think that's what I'm about/like"
Deadass, I'm bussin'.
"...in all seriousness, I'm great/fantastic/amazing."
Interesting as the second caption should be I am the one who knocks right?
It was pretty funny on an unintended meta level because the Italian verb for knocking is "bussare."
Huh the more you know. Thanks.
To be clear I'm fairly sure that that was not intended, but still :P
Is it cap because of capslock or what is the origin?
It's believed to have been a part of black American slang for decades, possibly from the term "high-capping" which essentially means bragging. Rapper E-40 used the term in his 1995 song "Da Bumble".

Thanks for the explanation and link!
"Cap" is short for "captions", in reference to people lying in the captions of their social media posts.
That’s not true
