Air filter
 
Could a dirty air filter really be the cause of a no start? If it is imma be really pissed

I think it would still start?

Pull the dirty filter out and try to start her. I'd bust out the good old volt meter and start testing the CPS. Good luck man!

Uh, no. Check your CPS output voltage first as recommended above..

K so today when I start it the starter is cranking and I hear it wanna catch n I gotta give it some gas sure it's not a
Fuel pump?

Could be fuel pump. Test the fuel pressure at the fuel rail with a gauge.

Until you start testing, it's all an educated guess. What's your budget for buying and replacing unneeded parts?
