I'm attempting to output the command that was executed with a prefix into console with discord.js

Question

I'm using this code snippet from the Jinx Selfbot from Github which I slightly modified to this template from the Discord Auto Reply index.js

bot.on('message', async(msg)=>{
    let cmd = msg.content.split(" ")[0]
    cmd = cmd.slice(settings.prefix.length);
    let args = msg.content.split(" ").slice(1);
     if(msg.content.startsWith(${PREFIX}) && msg.author.id === settings.ID){
        console.log(cyan(`[COMMAND RAN] :: ${message}`));

and it keeps outputting this into command prompt when run with node.js

     if(msg.content.startsWith(${PREFIX}) && msg.author.id === settings.ID){
                               ^

SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

Edit: I forgot to put in the original code snippet from the Jinx Selfbot

bot.on('message', async(msg)=>{
    if(msg.author.id !== settings.ID) {
        return;
    }
    let cmd = msg.content.split(" ")[0]
    cmd = cmd.slice(settings.prefix.length);
    let args = msg.content.split(" ").slice(1);
    if(msg.content.startsWith(settings.prefix) && msg.author.id === settings.ID){
        console.log(cyan(`[COMMAND RAN] :: ${msg.content}`));

As @Taplar said - ${} is reserved to template literals . If you want to access a variable outside of them, use its' name without any additional symbols.
