heroku error when trying to run migration

First time using heorku. Code is deployed to heroku and non db pages are rendering fine. I get this error and I'm not sure why:

irb(main):004:0> heroku run rake db:migrate
NameError: undefined local variable or method `migrate' for main:Object
    from (irb):4

It's currently unclear to me whether heroku ran migrations since anything simple like 

User.first

is giving me an error like this:

irb(main):005:0> User.first
PG::Error: ERROR:  relation "users" does not exist
LINE 5:              WHERE a.attrelid = '"users"'::regclass
                                        ^
:             SELECT a.attname, format_type(a.atttypid, a.atttypmod),

Thx in advance for any help. What would be next step to debug this?

You are not supposed to run that command into Rails console. You can run that command into shell inside project's directory.

heroku run rake db:migrate --app my_awsome_app

--app is optional
