Even the three-legged dog still got three good legs to lose

from The Roots – The Day Lyrics on Rap Genius

Meaning

Phonte’s preacher tells him it’s always important to look on the bright side, even when things seem bad. Even a dog that’s lost a leg can still function. Even if you are having problems, things could always be worse and you should be thankful that they aren’t.
