2004 Volvo S60 2.5T

Ok so I had my 2004 Volvo S60 overfilled...
Ok so I had my 2004 Volvo S60 overfilled with oil. So I went to drain it and drained out too much but I did not think it was all of it at all because I only drained out 5-6 and it holds 5.8 and it was atleast a quart or more overfilled. So I went to the store to get oil and was on the way back andit got sluggish, oil pressure light came on, the steering wheel locked up, and then the car shut off. So the stick showed no oil and I filled it up to the recommended amount. Then waited atleast 10 mins and tried to restart and it would crank but only for about 15 seconds before it sounds like it loses power and the rpms slowly drop and it shuts off. Please help. There is no check engine light on so I can't use my OBD reader. The oil filter was changed 2000 miles ago just like the oil had. Please help. I would like to fix it myself if I can because I always do. It doesn't make any unnecessary noises. However it does have some black smoke coming from exhaust.. Please help.

When you try to start it, does the engine turn at normal cranking speed? The engine might have partly seized because of lack of lubrication.
