Felsite is an igneous rock because it is made up of solidified lava or magma. Igneous rocks are the most common type of rock in the world. In contrast, a metamorphic rock is one that has been changed by heat and pressure. These rocks can be found in the Earth's crust, but they are less common than igneous rocks.
