Push Me - Remix

I had a dream that my best friend died
 He was laying on the couch as he closed both of his eyes
 And I just sat and stared ahead trying not to cry
 And all that I could say was "I tried mama, I tried"
 And when I walked on over to him to pay my last respects
 He opened up his eyes like he had risen from the dead
 He said "Why didn't you save me? Why didn't you take me
 And bring me home and get me clean? Why didn't you make me?"
 What could I say to that? I couldn't say a thing
 I seen all the pain inside his eyes, I could've stopped that pain
 I could've grabbed him by his collar, dragged him through the streets
 And kept him locked up all alone inside a room for weeks
 If I loved Mike, that's exactly what I would've done
 If I loved him like a brother, if I loved him like a son
 I'da gave my own life, just to save his
 Without the love of another man an addict can't quit
 Push me over the edge now, to the place where demons lay, yeah
 Push me over the edge now, only one step away I'm not a coward, I've never been afraid
 In fact I can't even wait until I see my last day
 But as long as I'm alive, if my friend ain't by my side
 There ain't no doubt inside my twisted mind that I would rather die
 And what is life, what is life without someone to love?
 Without someone to stand by, without someone to hug?
 It ain't nothing, it ain't nothing worth living
 I wish that I could say it was, but it just isn't
 I left the house with one thought on my mind
 No matter what it takes I ain't gon leave my friend behind
 I gotta save his life, even if I lose my own
 I don't wanna be alone, I just gotta bring him home
 I grabbed my bike and rode it straight across town
 Heard everybody whispering "It's bout to go down"
 I pulled up to the house but there was men blocking the door
 I reached behind my back and said "Lucky I brought my sword"
 I made my way into the house, Mike was laying on the couch
 I could still see the blue powder all around his mouth
 James ran into the room, bullets fired from his clip
 But I didn't get hit, because I deflected em quick
 James threw the gun and I cut the gun in half
 And when he turned to run I ran the sword across his calf
 He fell down on the floor, I said "Lay there, and stay there!
 These things you do to me and Mike, James, you know it ain't fair!
 You're lucky I don't kill you right here, right now
 If you don't wanna die today you better stay down on the ground!"
 I grabbed Mike by his shirt, made sure he wasn't hurt
 Mike weighed more than me, but it was time to put in work
 I threw him in the wagon, brought him back to the crib
 I locked him in a room and said "Mike, you're gonna live!"
 Withdrawal's the most painful thing I had ever seen
 But in less than two weeks I had my homeboy clean
