Вероятно, фраза не закончена. To keep it on the up and up = to keep it open and honest, to tell the truth

не подходит по контексту
а контекст такой:
I'm gonna be a star
And people will crane necks
To get a glimpse of me and see if I am havin' sex
And studyin' my moves
To try to understand
Why I am so unlike the singers in the other bands
I'm such a mystery
As anyone can see
There isn't anybody else exactly quite like me
And when it's party time
Like 1999
I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up
