The most solid rocky part of Earth is the inner core, which is composed mainly of iron and nickel. It is solid due to the immense pressure at the center of the Earth, even though temperatures can reach as high as 5700 degrees Celsius.
The solid rocky part of the Earth is contained within the lithosphere, which includes the crust and uppermost part of the mantle. The lithosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's structure and is divided into tectonic plates that "float" on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
The atmosphere, oceans, and other bodies of water are not part of Earth's lithosphere. The lithosphere consists of the solid outer layer of the Earth, which includes the crust and part of the upper mantle.
The crust is the outermost rocky layer, based on division by chemistry. The lithosphere is the outer rocky shell of the Earth, based on the physical state of the material (brittle). The lithosphere is a combination of the crust, and the brittle uppermost mantle.
The solid part of the Earth where you live is called the crust.
The upper rocky layer of Earth is called the lithosphere. It includes the Earth's crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.

The mostly solid rocky part of the Earth extending from the center of the core to the surface of the crust is known as the mantle. It is divided into the upper mantle and the lower mantle, and consists mainly of solid rock composed of silicate minerals. The uppermost part of the mantle is partially molten, forming the asthenosphere.

Anything that isn't the Earth's crust and the rocky brittle portion of the upper mantle is not part of Earth's lithosphere.
