Does carrying excess weight makes one feel tired and lazy all the time?

Like no energy and not feeling like doing anything or even working. Is it because of carrying the excess weight

Could be. But it's also likely that if you're carrying more weight you developed an underlying condition. I mean we all put on weight, exercise, and take it off. But for example I stopped losing weight even though I was exercising. And exercising as much as before and even when I increased the duration I still couldn't lose anymore. My doctor determined my thyroid was underactive but it wasn't that out of whack (yet). I took a gap of a year between seeing the Doctor I put on a lot of weight in that year and it got really hard for me. I had a moderately physical job and it got exhausting to do my job. By the time I got to the doctor my thyroid was much more out of whack. But I'd also developed sleep apnea. They gave me a sleep study and determined I had 77 apneas a hour which is significant. They gave me Cpap machine and within 6 months I lost half that weight just from being able to sleep properly again.

I'm not someone who makes excuses. It's very hard for me to admit when there's something I can't do. So believe me when I tell you I'm not exagerrating. I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't gotten this taken care of.

Yes carrying excess weight will burn calories and decrease your energy
Also carrying excess weight one day without your body used to it will make your body quite sore and tired...
With proper diet and rest you will be good to go

Could be a bad mindset, or could be a lack of proper lifestyle/health

Yeah a bit. It is also due to stress, your diet etc.
