I heard the UV cause skin cancer, I’m a brown guy and never wear sunscreen, does that mean I have a higher likelihood of getting skin cancer?

Higher melanin content in your skin offers a small degree of UV protection. So you are less sensitive to the sun than paler people, but that does NOT protect you completely and you should absolutely wear sunscreen to avoid bad burns. Anyone can still burn, and burns accumulate to increase cancer risk.
