How Can I Check Text Without Specific Caps?
How can I make it so then this would not need to be specific caps?
if script.Parent.Text == "Hi" then -- Text Doesn't Need Specific Capitalization.

You can use string.match.
if string.match(script.Parent.Text, "[%l]+") == "hi" then -- changed "Hi" to "hi"
I used string.match to lowercase all the letters in "script.Parent.Text".

Make sure to convert both ends to lowercase or uppercase so that the equals check would always be right:
if script.Parent.Text:lower() == "hi" then
You can run this example to see it in action:
local values = {"HI", "Hi", "hI", "hi"}
for i,v in ipairs(values) do
print(v:lower() == "hi")
end
