Brutus is not in hamlet, hes in Julius Caesar..... he asks the crowd to trust him and believe he had good reason for killing Caesar and be on his side and believe that it was for the better of the people.
It's a speech, but with a sub-genre called a soliloquy. A soliloquy is where a character is speaking, but only to himself. Nobody is listening. It is the actor basically thinking out loud. In his soliloquy, he is debating whether he should kill Caesar,or not. He is having trouble deciding and can't sleep because of it.
