Break Tradition (feat. Cisco Tavares)

[Intro]
Little wooden heart… cracked but still beatin’
They called me fragile… I called it survival
Little Nutcracker Prince… in a world tryna break me

[Verse 1]
They laughed at the crown sittin’ crooked on my head
Called me small, called me soft, called me mentally dead
But I stood on them scars like a motherfucking throne
Every crack in my body turned into bone
They wanted a soldier, I was built like a toy
But that little wooden chest still held real boy
Painted-on smile, but the pain was alive
Had to learn real quick how the fuck to survive
Family torn like old wrapping paper
Cold ass nights, no savior, no cater
Left me to splinter in a world full of boots
Still I stood tall in my red damn suits

[Pre-Chorus]
Say I’m just a puppet, say I’m just a dream
But I learned to pull strings, now I’m runnin’ the scene
Wood in my veins but my heart beat loud
Little prince standin’ ten toes down

[Chorus]
I’m the little Nutcracker Prince in the war of life
Cracked chest, clenched jaw, sharp as a knife
They tried to snap me in half, I just snapped back harder
Turned all that pain into power and armor
Little Nutcracker Prince, yeah I’m still on guard
World tried to break me, shit barely left a mark
From a shelf to a throne, yeah I made that climb
Broken little crown but the kingdom is mine

[Verse 2]
Grew up too fast in a world too cold
Ain’t no fairytales where I’m from, just told
“Man up” while I was still made of pine
With a dusty old dream and an empty spine
They don’t see the tears in the paint I wear
Don’t feel the screams locked deep in there
Everybody fragile, just hide it well
Mine was written like a story to tell
I’ve been kicked around rooms like a useless toy
Still found light in the heart they tried to destroy
Every crack is a map to the man I became
Little prince remember the name

[Bridge]
If I’m made of wood then the forest raised me
Wind in my chest, yeah wood grain saved me
All them blows just carved my shape
Every scar part of my escape
I don’t bow to kings that bleed like me
I built my own damn dynasty
Ain’t no strings on these hands no more
I broke free from the toy store floor

[Chorus]
I’m the little Nutcracker Prince in the war of life
Cracked chest, clenched jaw, sharp as a knife
They tried to snap me in half, I just snapped back harder
Turned all that pain into power and armor
Little Nutcracker Prince, yeah I’m still on guard
World tried to break me, shit barely left a mark
From a shelf to a throne, yeah I made that climb
Broken little crown but the kingdom is mine

[Verse 3]
Now they call me “strong” like it comes for free
They don’t know that shit was forged inside me
Every winter night taught me how to fight
Every lonely moon showed me my light
I’ve been cracked open, glued up twice
Heart went cold then turned to ice
Then melted down into something real
Now you can feel exactly what I feel
Not perfect, just real as hell
From a silent toy to a rebel yell
Little Nutcracker still in my chest
But now he marching at my command

[Outro]
So when you see me standin’ broken but proud
Know that I earned that place in the crowd
Little Nutcracker Prince, still here… still strong…
Still banging my heart to this war drum song
Yeah…
Little Prince… but this world is mine.

2025 BEST CHRISTMAS MUSIC
HIP HOP • DANCE • DIVINE DELIGHT
by Brent Schön AI
WWW.SCHON.ONE WWW.EVERYGODDESS.CLICK 

2025 Best Christmas Music: Hip Hop, Dance & Divine Delight is a high-energy Christmas album that brings together modern hip hop grooves, festive dance rhythms, and uplifting holiday spirit into one joyful celebration.

This project reimagines Christmas music for a new generation—where classic warmth meets contemporary beats, and celebration feels alive, creative, and inclusive. It’s Christmas soundtracking for city nights, home gatherings, car rides, dance floors, and quiet moments of reflection alike.

The “divine delight” of the album isn’t about religion or hierarchy—it’s about shared joy. The feeling that happens when music lifts people up, when rhythm replaces stress, and when the season becomes less about pressure and more about connection. Each track is designed to move the body while keeping the heart light.

Musically, the album blends:

Smooth and upbeat hip hop flows

Dance and club-ready holiday rhythms

Festive melodies reworked with modern production

Warm, positive energy suitable for all ages

Rather than nostalgia alone, this album focuses on now—Christmas as it feels in 2025: diverse, creative, rhythmic, and hopeful. It’s made for people who love tradition but want something fresh, for listeners who celebrate the season through movement, music, and togetherness.

2025 Best Christmas Music: Hip Hop, Dance & Divine Delight is not about perfection—it’s about atmosphere. A soundtrack for turning everyday moments into celebration and reminding us that joy is something we create together.

🎄🎶
Modern beats.
Festive movement.
A Christmas made to feel good.
