Nació en una familia musical y creció en Tortola, en las Islas Vírgenes Británicas. Iyaz estudió grabación digital en la universidad.
Sean Kingston encontró Iyaz a través de su página de MySpace en 2008. Iyaz cuando vio por primera vez los mensajes de Kingston en su bandeja de entrada de MySpace, no creía que era realmente él y simplemente ignoro los mensajes. Tiempo después de haber recibido tres mensajes, Iyaz pensó que era mejor que responder

[INTRO] I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out
[VERSE] It started, We was at the mall, it's the first place we ever met, Off in a gaze?, I was thinkin' of ways to tell my love that this is the end, And as we sittin sippin' Pina Coladas, the thoughts wouldn't leave me alone, I know exactly what I gotta do, but I'ma let her know when we get home, My love don't wanna see you cry, no, eh, And I don't never wanna leaveeee, This situation got me so lost for words, But I'ma try to tell you how I feeeelll. How am I to tell the love of my life, I'm in love with my best friend, I play it over and over up in my head, and I know how it's gonna end, How am I to tell the love of my life, I'm in love with my best friend, I'm tryin' hard to find the word, but not one seems to make sense.
[CHORUS] I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out
[VERSE] Oh baby, lemme holla at you, cos I really think that we need to talk, And by the way you looked in my eyes, I could you knew something was wrong, And as I watched as you tried to plate up, with the tears fillin' up in your eyes, You put your hands around my waist and hugged me tighter and said, 'Baby tell me what's on your mind,' My love, you know me from the get go, I've always got to keep reaaallll, This situation got me so lost for words, But I'ma try to tell you how I feeeelll. How am I to tell the love of my life, I'm in love with my best friend, I play it over and over up in my head, and I know how it's gonna end, How am I to tell the love of my life, I'm in love with my best friend, I'm tryin' hard to find the word, but not one seems to make sense.
[CHORUS] I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out
[BRIDGE] Eh, Oh I, Oh I, Oh I, I'm I love with my best friend
[CHORUS] I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out I'ma just breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out, Breathe and let it out
