His musical journey began with the moniker ℒund on Soundcloud, where he uploaded his debut track titled "Time," featuring Julia Westlin, on March 25, 2014.
On December 26, 2015, Lund made his initial foray into YouTube with the song "Fall Away."
A significant upload to Soundcloud occurred on December 21, 2015, with the track "破碎 (Broken)." The beat was sampled from "Breathe" by LEGS. The poignant lyrics delve into themes of a terminated relationship marked by infidelity and contemplation of suicide, juxtaposed with the realization that death is not a solution. The cover art corresponds to that of his album "Gold," released on October 23, 2016.
Transitioning to wider platforms, Lund's first track on Spotify, titled "Rx Luv," was released on October 22, 2016.
In 2018, ℒund relocated to Los Angeles to further his musical pursuits.
A notable collaboration unfolded in 2020 when Lund partnered with Lil Skies and Noah Cyrus for a reimagined version of his earlier single "Broken." This re-release was made available through Republic Records.
Across social media platforms such as Instagram and Twitter, Lund maintains a minimalistic online presence, often sharing posts and re-shares without elaborate captions. This understated demeanor has contributed to his appeal.

Anyways, I love you to the moon and back
I love you more than anything
You're in my heart, I love you, love you, love you
I think it's something in my DNA
I try to change, but keep on making the same mistakes
Mind in a prison, my heart in a cage
Who am I kidding, you reap what you sow, know that
Time is a virtue and patience I owe, ′cause my
Soul′s under pressure, I feel it implode, Lord please
Give me perspectivе that rattles my bones
Who am I kidding, you reap what you sow, know that
Timе is a virtue and patience I owe, 'cause my
Soul′s under pressure, I feel it implode, Lord please
Give me perspective that rattles my bones
I think it's something in my DNA
I try to change, but keep on making the same mistakes
Mind in a prison, my heart in a cage
Sins of the father on son where they lay
Maybe I′m looking for someone to blame
More than I blame myself (more than I blame myself)
I think I'm looking for someone to hate
More than I hate myself (more than I hate myself)
Thought I′d be better off here on my own
But wasting away is all that I know
Lessons I learn the hard way, I'm told
We're living together, but dying alone
Pour me a double this time, hard pill to swallow
Oh, I′m so tired of living this way
(Holding all this hate, what for?)
Your blood, it runs through my veins
Scared that I′ll end up the same
Tears rolling off of my face
(Don't wanna feel this pain no more)
I think it′s something in my DNA
I try to change, but keep on making the same mistakes
Mind in a prison, my heart in a cage
Sins of the father on son where they lay
Maybe I'm looking for someone to blame
More than I blame myself (more than I blame myself)
I think I′m looking for someone to hate
More than I hate myself (more than I hate myself)
Thought I'd be better off here on my own
But wasting away is all that I know
Lessons are learnt the hard way, I′m told
We're living together, but dying alone
In the song DNA by Lund, the singer talks about his struggles with his family history and how it affects his life. The lyrics describe how the sins of the father lay on the son and how he tries to change but keeps making the same mistakes. The first stanza talks about the singer trying to reach his loved one but is unable to do so. He professes his love for the person and how they are always in his heart.
The next stanza talks about the singer's DNA and how it is responsible for the mistakes he makes. He feels like his mind is in a prison and his heart is in a cage. He begs for perspective that will shake him to his bones. He wonders if he is looking for someone to blame more than he is blaming himself, and if he is looking for someone to hate more than he hates himself.
The following stanza has the singer admitting that he thought he would be better off alone. But the only thing he knows is to waste away. He has learned his lessons the hard way and is told that they are learnt in such a manner. Lastly, he expresses his fear of ending up like his blood and not wanting to feel any more pain.
