Your problem is that you used way to much lube. Lube slows the bearing down and makes the yo responsive. I know it seems odd but that’s the truth.
You need to clean your bearing to get the lube out or just play it and it will eventually become unresponsive. However, with two drops of lube it might take a while.
There are many threads and videos regarding the proper cleaning of a bearing and application of the correct amount of lube.

This. Even one drop is way too much lube.
If u don’t want to clean it just play it til the lube wears out. Tho that’ll be awhile.
