Hello
Thanks for query .

Based on the fact that you have posted the hard lump that you have on the shaft of penis since one year is Sebaceous Cyst .

The scrotal skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin. Normally it fades away without treatment however it need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.

Consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment. If needed it may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac)
