Mills was born and raised in Harlem, New York to his father, a therapist, and his mother, who operated two daycare centers in Manhattan. He attended an all-boys school St. Bernard's School during his elementary years and later graduated from the Browning School. Mills attended Union College to originally pursue a sports journalism major, but he dropped out ten weeks after starting classes to begin his rapping career.
Throughout high school, Skiz made a few raps here and there, although he never thought they would take him anywhere.
However, as a high school senior, he realized that rap was what he wanted to pursue. He threw away his dreams of becoming a sports analyst and even his college diploma to write songs. With heavily supportive parents, Skizzy was able to hone his skills without giving up on his dreams.
After releasing a few projects, including American Psycho EP, Phases, and Pace, he debuted his first major EP. The Red Balloon Project was dropped in 2015, and it received a fair amount of buzz on the internet, even hitting #35 on the Billboard 200. It gave him a few minor hits such as “Be Lazy,” and “Do You There.”
In 2016, Skizzy delivered his debut studio album, Alone Together, with appearances from Jojo, Olivver The Kid, and more. This album gave off a more emotional feel, with tracks like “Girl On A Train” and “Comb.”
Recently, Mars announced his next album, are you OK, which was released in 2018, using a mini-documentary. He explained this album as “a more honest and raw description of my life.”

Be Lazy
Skizzy Mars Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And they got me in the Days Inn
And the shit that I've been making is amazing
And things are moving fast, it's changing
Working all week no breaks it was crazy
Deadlines deadlines they will never trade me
Come through the crib and be lazy
Come through the crib and be lazy with me
We can watch Netflix
Or we can just have sex
I know I hit you room mate
But don't worry that was last year
Always caught up in the past shit
Lay up line, she was practice
Apple TV put on a good show
She got the number for the good blow
I smoke a lot you can probably tell
Pop a perc now I'm high as hell
Neighbors getting annoyed by the smell
Fuck it though, fuck em' know
You and me we can go anywhere we want to go
These niggas so unoriginal
I'll tell you anything you wanna know
And I've been putting days in
And they got me in the Days Inn
And the shit that I've been making is amazing
And things are moving fast, it's changing
Working all week no breaks it was crazy
Deadlines deadlines they will never trade me
Come through the crib and be lazy
Come through the crib and be lazy with me
She like, she like what you working with
Well I got the Xanax and the Percocet
We can really vibe out
I've been in the studio
Gotta take some time out
Bad bitch put her on time out
Stole her dad's Jaguar hope he doesn't find out
We ordered rent we don't dine out
First to cut, cut the line, then she cut the line out
And you know yo got my contact
When you ever need that
Tell the door man the penthouse
We stacking more green than the weed guy
And you know that shit loud too
And my pops say he proud too
Now he tell me get some bitches for the table
I was like "Ok I'll bring back two."
And I've been putting days in
And they got me in the Days Inn
And the shit that I've been making is amazing
And things are moving fast, it's changing
Working all week no breaks it was crazy
Deadlines deadlines they will never trade me
Come through the crib and be lazy
Come through the crib and be lazy with me
Be lazy, be lazy with me
Be lazy, be lazy baby
Be lazy ooh ooh ooh
Be lazy
And I've been putting days in
And they got me in the Days Inn
And the shit that I've been making is amazing
And things are moving fast, it's changing
Working all week no breaks it was crazy
Deadlines deadlines they will never trade me
Come through the crib and be lazy
Come through the crib and be lazy with me
