Beats are in 4/4 time...So, one bar is 4 "ticks" of the beat...

So, 16 bars is the amount of words/syllables you can fit in 64 ticks of the beat

Normally, it's 16 lines, with the last word hitting the 4th beat...But, as with any good emcee, I don't stick to that format and my syllables spill over to the next bar...
