Texts show up when starting Terminal - macos

Question

The text/code below shows up whenever I startup my terminal. This started happening after I checked a box in VSCode settings on "Send Keybindings To Shell" under the Terminal section. The texts still showed up even after I unchecked the box. I tried restarting both VScode, Terminal, my mac, and tried checking/unchecking that box in settings several times but the problem persists.
I am using MacOS (Big Sur V 11.5.2) and Zsh.
I have no idea how to pinpoint where the problem is coming from and how to solve it. I'd appreciate suggestions on what steps I can take to solve this.
EDIT:
It was tab completion info, autoload -U compinit and compinit -i, in ~/.zshrc that was causing the issue. If I comment this out, texts stop showing up. But even if I keep this part, tab completion stopped working. I'd like to keep my tab completion. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
What my terminal screen looks like when I start it:

Simple Fix: Back up your ~/.zshrc (for example, mv ~/.zshrc ~/.zshrc.bak). Then remove it using rm ~/.zshrc. Restart the terminal. This in princlpe should fix your issue.
Also, you can copy back the relevant PATH informations, etc from the backed up .zshrc if necessary.
