Basicily everything is in the title.

:console_exec
set /p "cmd=->"
set "console_exec=True"
goto :main

When I pass an input to to set /p it is reading as entire string In :main

:main
if "%cmd%"=="say" (
    set "_string="
    goto :say
    )

When I do "say hi" in the set /p it is reading it as if "say hi" == "say" but i want "hi" to be the next argument passed like %~2, any help is appriecieted. Thanks.

No need for if, when you use the given capabilities of the language. Just try to jump to the "command" label. Redirect the errormessage (with non-existing labels). You can even give an own message then:

@echo off
setlocal 
:console_exec
set /p "cmd=->"
2>nul call :%cmd% || echo invalid command
goto :console_exec

:say
echo --- %1
REM echo --- %*  // for more than one word
