I am assuming you are talking about Julius Caesar. 
Reasons Brutus may be a patriot:
- he was looking to the best interest of rome
- he thought J.C. would become a dictator and ultimately lead to the fall of Rome
- he believed J.C. was too ambitious for his own good
Reasons Brutus is a betrayer
- J.C. was his best friend
- He collaborated with people whose interest was not what best for rome
etc. etc. there are many arguments online. google them.
